Tide pools!

As part of our tide pool trip preparation, we played "guess the seaweed" last week. Can you name the types of seaweed we learned about?

"This is so long! Here is the holdfast!" 

Bladder wrack- "this one has air bubbles so I know it has to be bladder wrack!" "What are the air bubbles for?"

Moss- "I wonder why it's brown." "Would manatees want to eat this kind?"

Mermaid's hair- "It really does look like hair!"

"This looks like a smile!"

We also observed some live clams.

"Here is the straw where it gets the food." 

"How does it move so quickly into the sand with only one foot?" "This one is slimy."
