2014 0113-0117 Science Monday Learning Target -I can define carrying capacity in my own words as well as describe factors that can affect the carrying capacity of a species. Tuesday Learning Target -I can define carrying capacity in my own words as well as describe factors that can affect the carrying capacity of a species. Finish activity from Friday Today we will go over the Kaibab deer activity from the previous day. Students will be given a story on the Kaibab deer population. In this activity, students will graph data on the Kaibab deer population from 1905-1939, determine factors responsible for the changing populations, and determine the carrying capacity of the Kaibab Plateau. Students will answer data analysis questions about their graph. Standards MS-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics MS-LS2-4 : Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations. MS-LS2-5 : Evaluate competing design solutions for Wednesday Learning Target –I can define carrying capacity in my own words as well as describe factors that can affect the carrying capacity of a species. Students will work on an activity called “Box Lake" to understand that the different parts of the ecosystems are complicated and interconnected. The smallest change in one part can impact different species populations. The students will use pictures and graphs to help develop and support their understanding of the concept of Biological Carrying Capacity. They will work in small and large groups to process new information and Thursday Learning Target –I can define carrying capacity in my own words as well as describe factors that can affect the carrying capacity of a species. Friday Learning Target –I can define carrying capacity in my own words as well as describe factors that can affect the carrying capacity of a species. Students will continue working on the activity “Box Lake” scenarios As a whole group we will analyze data from the activity “Box Lake” scenarios Formative Assessment –Exit Slip Formative Assessment –Exit Slip Media/Technology –Document camera Standards MS-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics MS-LS2-4 : Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an Media/Technology –Document camera Standards MS-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics MS-LS2-4 : Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an Standards MS-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics MS-LS2-4 : Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations.
