Monday/Tuesday, 1/2 April, 2013


Students will be able to:
-describe the interrelationships between living things.
-describe how matter and energy are cycled through living systems.

Students completed a formative assessment probe Is it a consumer?

Students viewed BrainPop movies on symbiosis and food chains. 

Students then views a slide show on relationships between living things. You can view the video below.


Students also watched a video review of the cycling of matter through systems. Click below.


Students completed an activity of matching types of symbiotic relationships with examples. 

Students also received notes and a cloze activity on relationships between living things.

Students also completed a Glencoe virtual lab on food chains. Visit the link How is energy transferred through a community of organisms? to try the activity. Print out the handout or see me for a class tutoring sheet.

Students completed an exit slip of FCAT type questions on interrelationships among living things.

Students should cut out the strips with the cycles and paste matching strips front to back, with one side upside down in relationship to the other (be sure to only paste matching word strips). We will complete the mobius strips tomorrow in class.

There was no nightly home learning.
