Ocean Odyssey Educators Guide

This guide includes 8 elementary school level lessons, inspired by topics from the IMAX film Ocean Odyssey, and many NOAA mission critical areas. Watching the film is not required to carry out any of these lessons, but may enhance students’ learning experience of the topics presented in these activities.

These lessons progress for use from younger to older grade bands, but they all contain aspects and resources which may be adapted for all grade bands.
