Last Friday, AFS visited Wicomico Middle School 6th grade classrooms and led fish-related activities. Students competed in a Chesapeake Bay food web themed team building activity and explored what fish anatomy can tell scientists about the food they eat through an interactive fish dissection experience. Thank you to the amazing teachers, staff, and students for your participation and for having us as your guests!
