The Web of Life
Students participate in a game in which they discover the balance of life in the ocean. They identify different organisms that rely on different types of food. They answer questions to complete the instructional activity.
Curated OER
Community and Ecosystems
Learners complete a unit of lessons on ecosystems. They participate in online activities, create a diorama, write journal entries, and develop a Hyperstudio multimedia project on a selected ecosystem.
Curated OER
Pyramid of Biomass
Students interpret data to demonstrate biomass and number pyramids. They use information to draw conclusions and examine an example of biological magnification.
