   2. Canned Tuna<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Students look for the label \u201cdolphin safe\u201d on cans of tuna and write letters either supporting a total ban on catching dolphins or letters which state that now the problem needs further study to assure the health of the ocean ecosystem. \n<\/a>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n

   3. The Tuna\/Dolphin Controversy – Part 2<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Students examine case histories of human use and management of dolphin populations. \n<\/a>\n

Unit 2- Dolphin Adaptations<\/u><\/b><\/font>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dt>\n

   1. Hear Sighted<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Students analyze data as they role-play dolphin features and echolocation.\n<\/a>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n

   2. Dolphin Adaptations: Echolocation<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Slinky wave puzzles are used to determine the distance between a student and an object. \n<\/a>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n

Unit 3- Dolphin Food Chains & Webs<\/u><\/b><\/font>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dt>\n

   1. Food Web<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Students make a physical model of food webs, food chains and pyramids to show the interrelationships of organisms, nutrients and energy in a marine ecosystem. \n<\/a>\n

<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n

   2. String for Your Supper<\/a><\/b><\/dt>\n
Student teams create a mobile representing an ocean food web. \n<\/a>\n
