Now it is time to review all of the information you have learned about killer whales and report it to your teammates.

You can make your report to your team in different ways. You could write a report. You could make a presentation to your team. There may be other ways that you can think of to get your team the information they need --- use your imagination!

From your research, you should be able to report on:

  • information you have gathered that you feel is important for your team to know about killer whales (Step 2 and Step 3)
  • information about orcas and other whales in captivity (Step 4)
  • what can be learned from orcas and other whales in captivity (Step 4)
  • how you feel about keeping orcas and other whales in captivity (Step 4)

Congratulations! You are now an official ORCA SEARCHER.
