Teacher Resources

Students learn about a saucer scallop fishery around the Abrolhos Islands of Western Australia, where climate change and marine heatwaves are having a serious impact on fishing activities.

Understand how the world’s oceans are at risk from overfishing, how scientific knowledge can be used to prevent overfishing, and ways that science can be used to support sustainable fishing.

Science Talk is a video series featuring scientists from around the world and their fascinating research on our blue backyard. Topics include nightmarish deep-sea discoveries, coral larvae ecology, reef restoration, and whether magnets can repel sharks from fishing nets—plus much more.

Identify fish body, eye, mouth, tail fin, pectoral and dorsal fin shapes.

In this short film Ngarrindjeri elder Major 'Moogy' Sumner yarns about what story and Sea Country mean to him, including stories about making the kaiki (reed spears), fishing with the pelicans, spearing flounder at night, and how to find a stingray in the stars!

Each student pack utilises real data from the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium x Seabin partnership to develop age-appropriate skills in scientific investigation, data interpretation, geographical thinking, and sustainability problem-solving. Activities range from creative poster design and graphing tasks to evidence-based reports and policy-style proposals.

The teaching guide provides educators with background information, lesson ideas, and practical activities to help students learn about seagrass ecosystems, their ecological importance, and the methods used to monitor and protect them through citizen science.

This website is a teaching and learning resource that helps students and teachers understand seagrass ecosystems and why they are important. It provides educational materials such as videos, activity books, posters, and teacher guides that explain seagrass biology, its role in supporting marine life, and the threats it faces from human impacts and climate change.

This resource is designed to engage students in learning about seagrass ecosystems through hands-on activities, games, and field-based investigations. It helps learners understand the importance of seagrass habitats, the species that depend on them, and how citizen science can be used to monitor and protect coastal environments.

This activity book is a student-friendly resource that uses simple activities and games to teach younger learners about seagrass ecosystems, the animals that live in them, and why these habitats need to be protected.
