These Web pages provide a set of lesson plans devoted to organisms that live in the intertidal zone. Geared to grades seven to nine, the activities include studies of a variety of shells, a virtual tour of a rocky coast, and a study of life in a tide pool. Several online videos accompany the lessons.
