Species Identification Project
We will be completing a project over the next few weeks dealing with the identification of popular Alberta sport fishing species. Students will be creating a 3D model using a variety of materials that is true to size of their designated species.
Provided materials include paint, paper maché paste, chicken wire, magazines, paper scraps, hot glue, pliers and scissors. Students are asked to bring any additional materials they may require.
Once the models are built and painted, students will deliver a short presentation to their classmates introducing them to the species. Information to consider includes:

Once the models are built and painted, students will deliver a short presentation to their classmates introducing them to the species. Information to consider includes:
- Where can the species be found in AB? Consider general regions or specific bodies of water.
- What does the fish eat? Consider that this will help you decide what bait/tackle to use ;)
- How you would successfully catch the fish? What kind of rod, tackle, bait, etc would be best?
- Is it considered "good eating"? Find a recipe that would work well for the fish species
