Students discover stages in metamorphosis through up close and real encounters with video, hands-on investigative and interactive activities using mealworms.

Fourth graders participate in an activity dealing with the environment.

Students listen to the story Ant Cities by Arthur Dorros, and discuss the ways that ants are similar to people. They create a butcher paper mural of an ant colony that includes hills, tunnels, rooms, grass and sky.

Students explore the three main organismal divisions. Students classify organisms by invertebrates, vertebrates, and plants. They observe the differences and similarities between these groups.

Students study starfish through dissection. For this biology lesson plan, students explore the lives of starfish as they view a slide show, observe parts of echinoderms, and compare the classification of the starfish with other...

Learners work as a team to gather organisms from a stream to evaluate if the water quality is excellent, good, or fair to poor.
