The Ocean Sciences Curriculum Sequences from the Lawrence Hall of Science's MARE (Marine Activities, Resources & Education) program are in-depth, kit-based curriculum units that deliver science content correlated to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), with an emphasis on the Practices of Science as called for in NGSS and the Framework for Science Education K–12, with significant overlap with the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts.  The curriculum provides numerous opportunities for students to engage in investigations and make evidence-based explanations.  Be sure to check out the Teacher Guides to Marine Habitats and much more.
