Krill is a very small ocean animal that is key to keeping the ocean ecosystem going. The class reviews food webs and chains, learns about the importance of krill, discusses krill anatomy, builds a model of a krill, and then has a competition to see whose model can float upright. To extend the discussion, rising water temperatures, climate change, and physical adaptations can be introduced.
