Spotlight on...
Endangered Species!
Grades 2 & up
Special exhibits, artifacts and
presentations in November!
November dates:
7, 8 & 9
14, 15 & 16
28, 29 & 30
Although students are familiar with actions that conserve our fellow land-based plants and animals, they are less aware of personal conservation actions that can help to save marine life.
During this special event featuring a series of staffed teaching stations throughout the Aquarium, your students will come nose-to-nose with living creatures while learning about the threats – and small, day-to-day remedies – that can help to conserve marine species and even ecosystems (CT Science Standards 3.2 and 4.2).
Featured animals include sharks, sea turtles, frogs and a variety of fishes and invertebrates. The embodiments of some of the terrestrial conservation success stories—a live wolf and/or various birds of prey—will make special appearances on select days during this special event.
Note: There is an additional $2 fee per person for entrance into the Aquarium during these days.
A perfect tie-in with the “Frogs” exhibit and the “Tropical Rainforest” IMAX movie.
