The activity sheets on this site were developed
by the aquarium staff and interns for groups visiting the aquarium.
They are posted here for anyone to use. To see the answers, send
us an e-mail (woodshole.aquarium@noaa.gov) or ask for an answer
sheet when you sign in at the security desk.
If you use any of these sheets, we would like
to hear from you: Was the sheet useful? Too hard? Too easy? Do
you have suggestions how it could be improved? Send an e-mail
with comments, questions, suggestions to: woodshole.aquarium@noaa.gov
Share Your Activity Sheets
We would like to expand this page. Teachers, if you have your own
aquarium activity sheet that you would be willing to share, send
it to us so we can post it. Make sure to tell us whom we should
credit. Include a note telling what age group the sheet is written
for, and provide any instructions about how to use the sheet (activities
to do before or after the visit, for instance).

User Beware
The aquarium is constantly changing as animals grow old
and die and new animals arrive. The population of animals
in the aquarium will be at least a little different every
time you visit.
Because the aquarium is constantly
changing, you may not find the answer to every question.
The answers were all available in the aquarium when
the sheets were posted – and we've tried to stick
to questions about animals that are almost always in
the aquarium, but be aware that occasionally a question
might not be answerable on the day you visit. |
