We partnered with K2 Studios to publish a set of lesson plans to help middle school students dive into a new IMAX film, Ocean Odyssey. Narrated by legendary oceanographer and conservation icon Dr. Sylvia Earle, Ocean Odyssey takes viewers on a spectacular 3D underwater journey and transports viewers deep into the blue heart of our planet—our oceans.
In order to help students learn more about the topics covered in the film, KSLOF created the Ocean Odyssey Educator’s Guide for middle school students (grades 6-8). The free guide contains lesson plans, worksheets, and grading rubrics that teachers can use in their classes after seeing the film. These activities provide a way for students to delve into important educational and conservation topics in the film, while aligning to standards that teachers need to incorporate in their science classes.

The Ocean Odyssey Educator’s Guide contains lesson plans teachers can use to help middle school students dive deeper into the lessons learned in the Ocean Odyssey IMAX film. While watching Ocean Odyssey is not required to carry out the lessons, the film serves to greatly enhance the learning experience.
