Cycles and Starting Mealworms

Here is a fascinating lesson plan about the life cycles of plants and animals, and other cycles found in nature. Learners explore the cycle of the moon, the tides, and other sequences of events in every day life. The big activity is the construction of a habitat for mealworms. For one month, pupils examine what happens with them. They see that mealworms have basic needs to survive, and that the environment provides them with everything they need.
