• Is this a plant? Why or why not?
• This is a plant called a Mangrove. Mangroves are special because they provide food and shelter for many species.

ProcedureProcedure
• Teacher will direct students to the Salted Carrot Activity from the previous day.
• Students will each measure their carrots and chart any changes that might have occurred.
• Students will write in their science notebooks why they believe this change occurred.

Results of Salted Carrot Activity
Results of Salted Carrot Activity
• Based upon our data, we can see that the carrot shrunk in every category over the twenty four hour period. The length decreased by 1.5 inches, the diameter by 3 inches, and the weight decreased by.5 pounds. We believe that these decreases show the effect that salted water has on plants that rely on the Mangrove tree.

ProcedureProcedure
• Students will participate in an Animal Finder as a motivational activity.
• Students will then create different animals using a geo board and will explore different shapes.
• Students will actively participate in a Mangroves Scavenger Hunt independently.
• Students will research facts about mangroves on five websites that teacher provides– A handout will be completed based upon the sites
visited.
