A giant wave has hit Fish School! Message bottles are scattered everywhere! Your job is to go around the school, collecting as many bottles as you can while avoiding the fish and crabs. You might find school announcements, teacher notes, letters, schedules, notes between students, report cards, Aqua Fair announcements, or other papers. When you find a paper, you can answer questions about it and earn points. You’ll also want to “send” it back to its correct location. To do that, you’ll use clues about its topic and content. If you send it to the wrong place, you’ll lose a stamp.
