Educational Kit:
The Hidden World within Sea Ice

Have you ever wondered what makes it possible for seals, polar bears, and people to live in the Arctic?

​

Four activities in this kit:

  • Hands on exploration: Salty and Fresh Ice

  • Art Activity: Draw and imagine life inside the ice

  • Food Web Game: Can you build a food web to support a polar bear?

  • DNA detective: match that DNA sequence!

​

This kit contains all the materials and directions to learn about sea ice and the importance of microbes in the Arctic. It is available for check-out through the Museum of the North.

The development and distribution of this kit was supported through the Alaska Coastal Marine Institute by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (Award Number: M20AC10007).
