Ocean Predators and Prey

   This week we are learning about the bigger animals that live in the ocean. We are learning about these animals because they prey on fish we have just learned about. We not only got to look at great pictures of these animals, but videos to see how some of these animals behave. We learned the importance of defense that the animals must have to defend themselves from whales or sharks. We also learned that some of these animals are mammals and others are cold blooded. Some animals like the turtle are born on land but live in the ocean. There really is a lot of predators in the ocean, and us humans can be one of them!
    This class we learned so much that we were able to choose which animal was our favorite and got to draw them. Next class we will be working in teams to paint these larger animals so we can display them with our fish.
