Hi! I’m Heather.
I am a homeschooling mother of four wild and little kiddos, and I
blog over at Only Passionate Curiosity. On my blog, I try to share a
little bit of what our homeschool life is like, all our triumphs and
struggles. More than that, I try and share the things that are
working for us– free printables, a massive list of the free curriculum
resources that we have found online, and tips and tricks that make
our life easier. I hope you stop by the blog to check them out!

Pufferfish fill their stomach up with water to become large
and round to scare off predators. Some have pokey spines,
and are very poisonous!
Flying fish can “fly” up to 4 feet above the water, for distances up to
600 feet. They do this by moving fast like a torpedo through the
water, and then shooting themselves above the surface.
Jellyfish don’t have bones, heads, hearts or brains.
Some are clear, some glow, and some only live for a few
hours.
An octopus can taste things with it’s tentacles. Two of its ten-
tacles act like legs, and they can use them to move on the
ocean floor, or push off to swim.
Squids have the largest eyes of all the animals in the world.
They also swim the fastest of all the invertebrates.
The biggest swordfish ever caught was 15 feet long!
Swordfish are fast, strong swimmers, and fishermen love to
catch them because they taste so good!
Tuna fish can swim long distances. They swim almost 16
miles an hour, and can cross the whole Atlantic ocean in
about a month’s time.
Clown fish and sea anemones are good friends. The fish hide in the
anemones and eat the other fish the anemones captures. The clown
fish help take care of the anemones by eating the trash left behind.
Bluefish can bite! They have very strong jaws, and very
sharp teeth. Fishermen know to handle these fish carefully
so they don’t get bitten.
Butterfly fish are small and colorful. They live in the coral reef
and are considered to be endangered species. These fish are awake
during the day and sleep in the coral at night.
