I'm (almost) a High School Science teacher and I absolutely love this amazing hobby and I want to share some images of the hobby and of different species with my students. The problem is that in text books, most of the time you will find only diagrams of organisms and "cartoons" depicting what an organism should look like - and not the detail of lets say - an actual snails radula or the algae within a clams mantle.
This is where I try to find images from the internet, but some of them are copyrighted, understandably so, and none of them are, in my opinion, on par with what you guys are capable of capturing. So, here is a challenge -
Take some pictures, macro shots, of your favorite creatures, plants, algae, sponges etc. to show their different structures, parts, shapes, colors, movement (get creative!), symbiotic relationships, parasitic relationships, size in relation to other creatures, and anything else that you find interesting that you would want your kids to know about ocean life. Then, post them on this thread and I will incorporate it into a lesson plan! YES! This is an opportunity for your photographs to be posted, remembered and studied by potentially thousands of young Scientists!
By posting a picture on this thread, you have given me permission to use your image in my classroom and to incorporate it into a lesson plan. Please label each picture accordingly. Thank you for participating and helping a poor up-and-coming Science teacher!
