Positives

• This lesson includes engaging videos, a glossary, teacher's guide, article, and great graphics. 
• Students will enjoy seeing how scientists pose a question and work towards answering it. 
  

Additional Prerequisites

• In order to access the Teacher's Guide, you will need to input your name, school, and email address. 
  

Differentiation

• Cross-curricular connections can be made in social studies classes discussing the unintended benefits of economic decisions, or in health classes thinking about farming and foods. 
• Before getting started on this resource, pose the question "How do you think oyster farms can create homes for fish?" and have students answer in their notebooks or on a post-it. As students work through the resource, have them add their learning to their original answer. 
• As an extension, students can research if other farming practices, such as seaweed farming, have unintended benefits similar to those of oyster farms.
