Chemistry work in BioGeo has begun :).

Learning about a fascinating prehistoric fish this week! Have you heard of Arapaima? Reaching up to 10 feet and weighing 440 pounds, arapaima are the largest freshwater fish in the Amazon. These slow-moving, gentle giants will eat anything in their path. They “vacuum” their meals by opening their mouths wide and suctioning their food in a sudden, noisy gulp. Once inside, they’ll crush the food with their powerful jaws. Fossils discovered in Colombia that bear a striking resemblance to the arapaima have been dated to more than 13 million years ago. These fish have amazing adaptations, a modified swim bladder which enables them to breathe oxygen and incredibly tough scales which act as a natural bulletproof vest! BioGeography is a wonderful way to travel the world and learn more!

BioGeo begins Sept 14 in person and Sept 16 on Zoom! It is an exciting mix of Geography + Biology perfect for 7-9th graders! We will travel around the world from the Galapagos islands to the Amazon region, African habitats, Australia, Indonesia, Polar regions and more! https://www.worldexplorers.club/product/biogeography/
