Natural History Research Project




Let’s begin our natural history research project by visiting the Great Lakes Aquarium in Duluth, MN!


The Aquarium models a number of habitats from the Great Lakes and around the world. With exhibits featuring hundreds of species, there are research topics galore.
As you tour through the aquarium, assist students in digging into the content of the exhibits. NOTE: Exhibits are not listed in order on the teacher sheet, but they are on the student sheet! (Sorry – ran out of time!) As you tour, encourage students to take notes about what interests them. They will need help honing specific content related to what interests them.
Have a wonderful time!
