The mystery of the giant kelp forest

Lesson by Luka Seamus Wright and Salomé Buglass, directed by Upamanyu Bhattacharyya, Otter Studios.

Like any other plant, kelps require light to grow. Yet kelps found nearly 90 meters below the ocean's surface, where sometimes only 0.1% of sunlight can reach, grow as large as, and often even larger than, their shallow counterparts. So how have these large, light-dependent organisms adapted to thrive at such depths? Luka Seamus Wright and Salomé Buglass explore the ocean's hidden forests.

One of the great features of TED-Ed Students Talks is that all the activities are completely customizable. 

The program provides a flexible (and free!) framework that can be adapted to any grade level, subject, or learning style. Facilitators can start small or guide students through the entire talk development and delivery process, tailoring it to what their specific classroom needs and meeting students where they are to best help them to identify, develop, and share their ideas.
