Kids start by reading a book about renowned scientist, Sylvia Earle. From there, they discover bioluminescence by creating a simulation in a bottle, and end the day by identifying and labeling marine life and the layer of the ocean where each resides. Students end the day testing out their bioluminescence effect using blacklight flashlights and a room as dark as the ocean floor.
