Whales-Preschool/Kindergarten level
In this unit study we learned that whales are
mammals, which means they are warm-blooded, and need to breath air to
live. We learned the difference between "flippers" and
"fins". We measured, using a measuring tape outside, the lengths of
different whales and compared that to the car, the house, etc.

Inky The Whale
This is the story of Inky, a female pygmy sperm
whale who was found stranded on a New Jersey coast on Thanksgiving Day
in 1993. She was rescued with the help of volunteers from the Marine
Mammal Stranding Network and a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter. Scientists
at the National Aquarium in Baltimore discovered her stomach was full of
plastic debris, which was preventing her from getting the nutrition she
needed. The story of Inky is important, because it shows how our trash
impacts the environment, sometimes far away from where we might think.
Although this story has a happy ending, many mammals, sea turtles, fish
and birds die every year from eating or becoming entangled in marine
debris. The purpose of this activity book is to teach children about the
problem of trash and marine debris through the true story of Inky. This
site includes coloring pages that go along with the story.
