Whale Communication Hide and Seek

Whale Communication Hide and Seek

In this activity, learners pretend that they are orcas and search for their "pods" using Morse code. As orcas use squeaks to communicate and keep track of each other, the learners will do the same, with balloons. Use this activity to discuss the various communication methods different animals use.
