Wednesday

Standard(s):    

• SEV1b. Develop and use a model based on the Laws of Thermodynamics to predict energy transfers throughout an ecosystem (food chains, food webs, and trophic levels). (Clarification statement: The first and second law of thermodynamics should be used to support the model.)

LT:We are learning to develop and use a model to predict energy transfer throughout an ecosystem (SEV1b). 

SC:

• I can create a model that shows energy transfer.

• I can use my model to predict energy transfer.

Lesson/Activity:

1. Daily 10

2. Continue Working on Salt Marsh Food Web Activity

3. Vocab Matching Cards/Vocab Review Game  

Resources: GA School Website, Google Classroom, Teacher website, Interactive Notebook, Environmental Science Textbook, Kahoot
