Make Your Pete Ocean Simulation
CUSTOM MATERIALS
Pete the Fish Story Cards (1 per class/group) Pete the Fish Pattern Card (1 per student) Pete the Fish Activity Sheet (1 per student)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Students will discuss how things like oil, chemicals, trash, fertilizers, removing trees to build houses, and vacant abandoned factories might affect the fish who live in our waterways. Students create their own fish and work in groups to take them through the story of a fish named Pete who travels along the Chicago River. This unit can also be adapted to apply to a local river, lake, or ocean in your region.
