“How does the ocean connect the entire world?”
CoTree Architects, it’s time to find the answer. Join us for a deep dive into Florida’s blue frontier as we embark on our Coastal Discovery Quest—a multi-disciplinary expedition to the brand-new Mote SEA (Science Education Aquarium) at Nathan Benderson Park!
This isn't just a day trip; it’s the culmination of a 4-week journey. Through our Google Classroom "Observation Deck," our scholars will transform into junior marine biologists and environmental engineers, preparing to step into the aquarium not just as spectators, but as experts.
⚓ The Quest Experience:
• Weeks 1-4: Interactive lessons on marine biology, ecology, and the engineering behind Life Support Systems (LSS).
• The Live Expedition (June 8th): A guided tour of Mote SEA where we’ll see "Science on a Sphere" in action and explore the "nature’s nurseries" of our coastlines.
• The Post-Quest Lunch: After the tour, we’ll gather nearby to share our discoveries over a community lunch.
