We take a science-based approach to the popular children’s book ‘Sharing a Shell’ by Julia Donaldson. While the book can be viewed simply from the perspective of ‘friendship’, we will be discussing the ideas of animals cooperating to survive (symbiosis), predator/prey interactions, and habitat.
Students will be able to study the three very different animals from the story, with hands-on opportunities to compare them using live and preserved specimens as available. Towards the end of the program, students will have the opportunity to create a paper-bag hermit crab craft!
