observe un estanque de peces en una tienda de mascotas o
en la casa de un amigo. Si es posible, observe un estanque de
agua salada. Juntos observen como los peces y otros animales se
mueven. ¿Cuál está cerca del fondo? ¿Cuál está en el medio?
¿Cuál nada cerca de la superficie? Pida ver los peces siendo
alimentados. Ayude a su hijo o hija a hacer un dibujo u otro tipo de
anotación de las cosas que observen en su Cuaderno Ambiental.
Fish for Dinner: We get many foods from the ocean, including
many fish, crabs, shrimp, lobster, squid, clams, scallops, and much
more. Consider preparing fish or another type of seafood for dinner.
Try preparing different types of seafood in different ways. Which
foods and preparations become family favorites?
Peces para la Cena: Nosotros conseguimos muchos alimentos
en el océano, incluyendo muchos peces, cangrejos, camarones,
langostas, calamares, almejas, moluscos con concha, y muchos
otros. Considere la preparación de peces y otros tipos de mariscos
para la cena. Trate de preparar diferentes tipos de mariscos en
diferentes formas. ¿Cuál de los alimentos y la forma en que se
preparan se convierte en el favorito de la familia?
