March Break - Ocean Science Experiment Day

Today was Ocean Science Experiment Day as part of the March Break day program at the aquarium.  In the morning the students did lots of experiments to learn about the ocean.  In the afternoon the students went outside to paint in the snow, play with ice crystals, and freeze bubbles.  To end the day the students used the knowledge that salt lowers the freezing point of water to make yummy vanilla ice cream!

How does the ocean get its salt?

How salty is the ocean?

Can you jump as far as a beach flea?

How does fog form?
