In this lesson, we will look at some of the effects that ocean pollution has on the oceans' inhabitants. Finally, we will create a plastic bag jellyfish to demonstrate just how easily plastic bags can be mistaken for jellyfish.

In this lesson, we will learn about the impact that pollution has on our oceans and what we can do to combat ocean pollution. We will use plastic to create a poster to raise awareness of ocean pollution.

In this lesson, we will identify things that humans do that pollute the ocean. We will think of things we can do to reduce the pollution in the ocean. At the end of the lesson, we will make ocean play dough and practise removing the rubbish from it.

In this lesson, we will construct a boat and then test it in some water to see if it floats.

In this lesson, we will be scientists and explore whether items we find around our house float or sink and sort them into two piles, depending on whether they float or sink.

In this lesson, we will predict what will float and sink. We look at our findings and identify patterns. We will use our knowledge to predict what will float or sink in a quiz at the end of the lesson.
