Our class made Graham Cracker Marine Reserves using icing, various sprinkles, a graham cracker, a lifesaver, and marshmallows. First we put icing on the front of the cracker to create a surface for organisms to fall on and place a dollop of icing on the back of the graham cracker and a lifesaver on top which symbolizes the bolt which attaches it to the substrate. Then we sprinkled on red suger crystals to represnt Red coralline algae and counted and recorded the number of red sugar crystals or red coralline algae. Next we pour out some brown long john to show diatom and recorded their number as well. Next comes the barnacles or rainbow sprinkles and once they were counted up we added one mini-marshmallow for every 10 rainbow sprinkle to show adult diatoms. Then we added rainbow long johns to show coral and we added rainbow flower sprinkles to represent oyster spat.
