More Plankton!

We went to the Boat Club again on Friday in search of plankton. We dragged the plankton net with Katie (Dr. Pāua) and then analysed the results under the microscope. Amazing creatures and plants resembling the weirdest things from outerspace.
We are provoking our curiousity, asking questions and deepening our understanding of our local marine habitat. Did you know that some zooplankton remain in their form as plankton for their entire lives? These are called Holoplankton. You learn something new everyday! And sometimes you learn many new things in the day! We are applying the learning from 'in the field' to our individual Inquiry projects.
