In week three for STEAM we researched the 
different life cycle patterns observed in marine animals. We found that there are four main categories
- Oviparous-producing young by means of eggs which are hatched after they have been laid by the parent.
- Viviparous-give birth to live young.
- Ovoviviparous-once the egg hatches, it remains inside the mother for a period of time.
- Metamorphosis-change of physical form, structure, or substance.

‘During week 4 we looked at the life cycle of sea turtles. We chose a turtle to research from a choice of 7. I chose the green turtle . I chose this turtle because they are unique among sea turtles.
I found out about its habitat, the stages of its life cycle, threats, conservation efforts and any other fun facts.
We then created a fact file about the turtle.’

This week for STEAM we learned about the different ocean zones. I researched and created a labeled diagram of each zone. It had to include a description of the zones characteristics, pictures of the animals that live in each zone and a brief description of the zone. There are five different zones which include: the sunlight zone (epipelagic), the twilight zone (mesopelagic), the midnight zone (bathypelagic), the abyssal zone (abyssopelagic) and the hadal zone (trenches).
