Learners start by using the “Freshwater” section of the Aurelia app. This helps them glean base knowledge of freshwater fish adaptations and their habitats. Students then extend their knowledge to consider how fish have to adapt seasonally, namely in the winter when surface water freezes over. They’ll discover how fish have to physically and spatially respond to those changes within their environment. Although this activity could translate to other freshwater habitats, for this lesson, fish from the North American Great Lakes will be utilized.
Estimated time required: 1 class period.
Technology required for this lesson: Tablet or Smartphone.

The Geniverse software is being developed as part of a five-year research project funded by the National Science Foundation. Still in its early stages, a Beta version of the software is currently being piloted in six schools throughout New England. We invite you to try the current Beta version, keeping in mind that you may encounter errors or pages that are not fully functional. If you encounter any problem, it may help to refresh or reload the web page.
