Scientists have divided the ocean into five main layers. These layers, known as zones, extend from the surface to the most extreme depths where light can no longer penetrate. These deep zones are where some of the most bizarre and fascinating creatures can be found.

Use this craft activity for a fun way to teach your children about the different layers of the Ocean.

Last month, our research led us deep as we dove into the zones of the ocean! We had a blast with ocean exploration. The students were REALLY interested in the Hadal Zone and all the mysterious &amp…

Kids can learn about the five ocean zones and the sea animals that live in each layer with this creative science habitat project and underwater world!

How much do we actually know about the ocean? It’s full of salt, it covers about 70% of the Earth’s surface…and we’ve only explored about 5% of it. In fact, more people have travelled into space than…

We have been enjoying learning about the Ocean and especially sea animals but we had never talked about the layers of the ocean until now. Paint samples work perfectly to represent the different levels, but if you don’t have any on hand you can always use layers of paper. When we were finished with this activity we had learned what type of animals live at different depths, what the different zones are called, and had a cute craft to help us remember and decorate our wall. #learningactivity

Mariana Trench Diagram1 Pacific Ocean's Mariana Trench at 11,033 meters (36,201 feet) deep. In order to better illustrate the actual depth of the Mariana Trench, consider the following; if Mount Everest, which is the tallest point on earth at 8,850 meters (29,035 feet), were set in the Mariana Trench, there would still be 2,183 meters (7,166 feet) of water left above it.

If you’ve ever tried the liquid layers in a jar, here is a great twist for showing your superheroes the layers in the ocean. This is the simplified version of Ocean Zones in a Jar but has on…
