    Description

    Full Ecology unit for middle school with a variety of 30 low or easy prep resources included. NGSS friendly STEM projects, labs, games, and hand-on activities keep student engagement high. Everything has been tested in my classroom and tweaked over many years. I calculated that it comes out to about six weeks but that could very easily be expanded or condensed, depending on your needs. It comes with a free pacing guide PDF with descriptions of each of the products and approximately how long it takes to do each one.

    Topics Covered:

    Matter and Energy in Organisms and Ecosystems

    Abiotic and Biotic Factors

    Introduction to Food Webs

    Feeding Behaviors- Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores

    Food Chains

    Standards

    to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
    NGSSMS-ETS1-2
    Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
    NGSSMS-LS2-2
    Construct an explanation that predicts patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple ecosystems. Emphasis is on predicting consistent patterns of interactions in different ecosystems in terms of the relationships among and between organisms and abiotic components of ecosystems. Examples of types of interactions could include competitive, predatory, and mutually beneficial.
    NGSSMS-LS2-3
    Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. Emphasis is on describing the conservation of matter and flow of energy into and out of various ecosystems, and on defining the boundaries of the system. Assessment does not include the use of chemical reactions to describe the processes.
    NGSSMS-LS2-5
    Evaluate competing design solutions for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Examples of ecosystem services could include water purification, nutrient recycling, and prevention of soil erosion. Examples of design solution constraints could include scientific, economic, and social considerations.
    NGSS5-LS2-1
    Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment. Emphasis is on the idea that matter that is not food (air, water, decomposed materials in soil) is changed by plants into matter that is food. Examples of systems could include organisms, ecosystems, and the Earth. Assessment does not include molecular explanations.
