Afternoon Ecology - Crabs and Invertebrates Discovery

Afternoon Ecology: Crabs and Invertebrate Discoveries
Afternoon Ecology offers an engaging educational program for K-5th graders, perfect for afterschool enrichment or homeschool education. Designed to foster curiosity, students explore the diverse habitats of the San Francisco Bay Area while collaborating with their peers. This week's theme, Crabs and Invertebrate Discoveries, dives deep into the world of marine invertebrates, with a focus on crabs and other bay and ocean species. Students will compare habitats where these creatures thrive, from the rocky shore to the Bay, and investigate the unique adaptations that help them survive in different environments. Through interactive activities, students will observe these fascinating invertebrates, learn about their ecological roles, and even create their own invertebrate models to deepen their understanding of these incredible animals.
With new themes introduced weekly, students can build on their growing knowledge of marine life by attending regularly. Each session enhances connections between ecosystems and strengthens scientific inquiry, teamwork, and environmental stewardship.
