Abiotic and Biotic Factors

Is The Lion King a good representation of ecology? Use this informative worksheet in your science class to guide a discussion about abiotic and biotic factors from the Disney film. As they watch, young ecologists answer short answer...

Students identify a local plant community and make a variety of measurements. They measure abiotic factors such as taking soil samples and making measurements of weather conditions on the day of the study.

Small groups investigate plots of land to discover how abiotic and biotic factors interact. After recording their findings, scholars share observations with peers and self-reflect on the learning process. 

In this ecosystem learning exercise, students will distinguish between the abiotic factors and biotic factors shown in a diagram. Then students will correctly order the following: population, ecosystem, community, and organism.

Here is a fine science instructional activity in which pupils look into biotic and abiotic factors. After a review of what these terms mean, learners list five biotic components and five abiotic components. Then, they must draw a picture...

What are the characteristics of life? Young biologists will try to grasp this concept as they feel hidden objects and try to categorize them. In an extremely hands-on activity, stations are set up around the classroom and groups rotate...

Discover how much your young scientists know about biotic and abiotic factors with a two-question formative assessment that requires them to observe, list, and describe. 

Students create a model biome to understand the abiotic and biotic factors that go into creating a biome. In this biomes lesson plan, students should display plants, animals, temperature, precipitation, and more.

How do ecosystems react to change over time? Show your class how natural and man-made factors affect the organisms in an area using the guidelines in a video about standard LS2C. Topics include biotic and abiotic factors, biodiversity,...

Learners carry out an outdoor land study in which they identify organisms living in the soil, and any other animals living within the site. Groups also examine abiotic factors. They respond to a series of questions concerning their data...
