Classroom Aquatic Ecosystems are biologically diverse ecosystems modeled after natural systems, such as wetlands, ponds, and rivers. As a ‘living laboratory’ in the classroom, your miniature ecosystem is a powerful tool for experiential learning and an integrated curriculum for all ages! Students can design, build, and care for their own classroom ecosystem, and conduct science-based inquiries into how natural systems work and how human activities affect nature. You may purchase a pre-fabricated educational Classroom Aquatic Ecosystem through SEEDS or buy an instructional manual and create your own design!
