Objectives: After a lesson about the botanical taxonomy, students can classify plant branches based on their characteristics. Activities/practice: + Search for a certain area (forest/national park) to practice classification of plants or collect specimens for students to practice. + Let students review plant taxonomy, call…
Students learn taxonomy to classify and observe animals based on the characteristics of each major group of animals. You can go to zoos, national parks or collect images for students to categorize. Students observe the physical appearance of animals in the field at the zoo…
After studying and observing the difference between flowering plants and non-flowering plants, students go out to look for different plant species in the sightseeing area and make notes about their own observations. + Students will classify flowering and non-flowering plants based on their adaptability and…
After observing and drawing conclusions about the relationship between prey and predators, students go to the forest and look for insects and animals and classify them according to two categories of prey and predators. Students work in groups to build energy flow about the organisms…
Review the different ecological roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers within the local area and in nature. + Students are divided into three groups, each group of 3-5 children, look for organisms in the forest and classify them into three categories: Autotrophs, heterotrophs and decomposers.…
After learning about the food chain, students practice building food chains and creating their own food chain through fact-finding observation. + Students simulate interactive relationships in the ecosystem with diagrams, drawings or creative discretion. + Instruct students to create ecological relationships through the food chain…
Students learn about the destructive energy of fungi and the important role they play in maintaining the ecosystem & understand how fungi help maintain ecosystems.
After learning and exploring the adaptation of plants and animals, students research, exchange, and talk about the creatures which have characteristics adapted to the local habitat they know. Thereby it can stimulate the of students’ curiosity, inquisitiveness, the ability to discover; they can find out…
Select a certain species for students to practice recognizing, discovering external adaptive features. For example, seals. Students practice exploring the adaptability that allows seals to live in water and observe. Students understand that adaptability has a structural or extrinsic trait that helps them thrive in…
Review adaptive behavior of animals. Observe, comment, discuss monarch butterfly migration as an example of adaptive behavior, then find more examples of adaptive behavior of wild animals that students know about. Students understand adaptive behavior as actions, behaviors that allow animals to thrive in their…
