SUMMARY:Marine Biology Homeschool Classes
DESCRIPTION:Dive into Marine Biology with Tampa Bay Watch! \nTampa Bay Watch is thrilled to introduce a brand-new marine biology unit designed specifically for local homeschoolers. Join us at the beginning of each month for an exciting\, hands-on learning experience! \nThese student-only sessions are perfect for curious minds ages 6 and up\, offering opportunities to explore marine ecosystems and engage with real-world science. Whether you drop in for a single class or register for the full series\, each session promises discovery\, adventure\, and fun. \nSpaces are limited—reserve your spot today! \n$20 per participant \n>>> RESERVE A SPOT <<< \n  \nOctober 3rd 1:00 – 2:00 PM\nInvertebrate Investigation\n\nGet up-close and personal with some fascinating residents of our estuary as we dive into the world of invertebrates. What makes an invertebrate an invertebrate? Students will explore this question through interactive encounters with animals like sea stars and horseshoe crabs. We’ll sharpen our observation skills and practice scientific classification in a fun\, engaging environment.\n\nNovember 7th 2:30 – 3:30 PM\nSquid Dissection\n\nWhat do snails\, clams\, and octopuses have in common?
