Aquarium Bound

I've been dying to go to Toronto's newly built aquarium and see first hand what it looks like and what educational programs they offer. Well, tomorrow night is my chance since they are hosting a teacher night! I really hope that we can get some of our students on a trip here since all our classes have been learning about water this year.

About 2/3rds of our planet is covered in water and only a fraction of that water is fresh. There is so much life that lives under water and all of them are so amazing since their environment is complete different from ours. All the different adaptations these creatures have made makes life under water so incredibly diverse. As well, do to our physical and technological limitations we have been able to explore very little of the ocean, so who know what lurks in the depths below!

I'm super excited... if you can't tell.
