Spongebob Academy

What really goes on in Spongebob’s world under the sea?  We will find out in this class that will have a lot of hands-on Oceanography and other Spongebob related topics.

There will also be a fieldtrip to an aquarium combined with a beach cleanup volunteer service in late September.

In this class, we will learn about the different animals and habitats under the ocean and our part in keeping it in good condition.  We will sometimes cook a little (make our own Krabby Patties and a few other delicacies), we will play games, like Dolphin Splash and we will also dissect a few animals, like crabs and squid.  We will even learn a little bit about mythology, when we learn about King Neptune.
