If you feel inclined to delve into food-chains, we did a fun craft with the shark food chain that I found on Pinterest. We made animal cut-outs of each animal’s open-mouth face “eating” the next animal (think 2-d nesting dolls). Or I suppose you could put them on cups or something for a 3-d nesting doll effect.

Obviously it's too late for this unit but if you do this unit again or if someone else wants an easy shark themed food idea get some of those blue gummy sharks make casserole dish of blue jello and place the sharks in side or on top of it you could also incorporate black or raspberries into the jello as Coral 🪸 and cool whip around the edge as sea foam. You could also make beach cupcakes which are really just normal cupcakes that you dip your frosted cupcake into gram cracker crumbs to form sand then use blue decorating gel to form the water's edge. A gummy bear under a cocktail umbrella can add to the effect of you have some on hand

We are finishing up a summer long Ocean Study that my son chose. We've been really light about it though, just reading books together and watching movies. No major school work. We will start our official year August 2nd. 😊

I have a edible activity you can try that I learned in a Child Development course many years ago. You will need: plain cupcakes or muffins, graham crackers, whip cream or white cake frosting, blue food coloring, cocktail umbrellas, gummy sharks, and a small plastic bag. The first thing you do is color the whip or frosting blue. The whip cream or frosting will cover the entire muffin. Next, throw the graham crackers in the bag and pulverize them. Cover one side of the muffin with the pulverized graham crackers. Lastly, throw the gummy shark on top of the ocean side (blue) and pin the umbrella on the sand side (graham crackers). Have your side conversation!

Public schools in my area go back around mid-August, but some in the US go after Labor Day. We’ve embraced the flexibility of homeschooling and school year round with breaks throughout. I live in Texas, which has oppressively hot summers, so we took a shorter summer break and will take more breaks throughout the year when the weather is more enjoyable. My kids should retain information better this way with just taking a few weeks off periodically versus taking an extended summer break. It’s what works for us, but that’s the beauty of homeschooling! I love that each family can adapt their schedule to meet their needs.
