Concepts of Thinking: Spatial Significance, Patterns and Trends, interrelationships

Inquiry: How might the increased swim distance impact the polar bears sustainability?

Activity: Create a map of the past and current range of Arctic Ice, polar bear bear range and any other potential contributing factor. Make predictions as to how far the polar bears may have to swim in the future and determine the impact. Communicate to an appropriate audience possible solutions to this problem via story map.
