Description
The Pacific Lamprey is an amazing and ancient fish that like the Salmon play an important ecological and cultural role in the Pacific Northwest. Today Pacific Lamprey is threatened and USFWS biologists and local Pacific Northwest tribes are working hard to protect this important fish. Like the Salmon, Pacific Lamprey are an anadromous fish and they live in both fresh water and the ocean during their lifetime.
The Pacific Lamprey in the Classroom curriculum has been developed in cooperation with the Oregon State University Extension 4-H Youth program, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission. It is designed to help students in grades 4-8 meet core standards in science (life cycles, classification and more) and social sciences.
The curriculum uses a new multi-media platform that supports student learning in a fun and highly engaging way. The curriculum combines text, graphics and incredible video to deliver content in a compelling way. Students are able to move through the 6 chapters at their own pace. Accompanying student worksheets are available.
