This teacher’s guide includes activities and an assessment on the research question ‘How is ongoing research and monitoring of oysters increasing our understanding of estuaries?‘. Students learn environmental conditions that directly influence estuary organisms, how to test hypotheses through scientific investigation, and how scientists make predictions about long-term changes such as climate change.
