Description
Take your Ecosystems and Biomes Unit to the next level with a Ecosystems and Biome Project that can incorporate Project Based Learning! With detailed animal research graphic organizers, this resource allows you to customize the focus of your students' research--studying organisms and animals, habitats, biomes, or ecosystems, this resource has you covered! Need digital? Google Slides for Google Classroom are included!
With the support of the Animals and Ecosystems research graphic organizers, your students will be ready to create a mobile museum that includes a research paper, slideshow presentation, 2D or 3D model of their organism, and/or a mural/backdrop of their ecosystem. These materials provide students with lots of opportunities to draw pictures and create diagrams, as well as record factual information and details about habitats, ecosystems, organisms, and their chosen animal.
>> Definitions are included throughout the note-book pages to support students' mastery of key ecosystems/biomes vocabulary.
Included in Ecosystems Project Based Learning:
23+ note-booking pages.
✔ Student research booklet pages focusing on:
- Habitats, Ecosystems, Biomes, and Abiotic and Biotic factors
✔ To develop an in-depth understanding of a specific organism, students research the organism's:
- Niche (carnivore, omnivore, herbivore)
- Adaptations (physical and behavioral)
- Food chains and food webs specific to the organism's environment
- Interactions with other organisms (symbiosis-parasitism, commensalism, mutualism)
✔ Extension Pages on the following topics:
- Comparing and contrasting two organisms (giving students the opportunity to share their research with a peer and receive feedback!)
- Human Impact (positive and negative effects)
- Changes affecting the organism and it's habitat over time
✔ Directions for a Project Based Learning component:
- Details and steps for implementing the research project as a project-based unit
- Photos of example projects
- Suggested driving questions
- Letter from the "museum" for launching the project (editable version included)
- Close-reading comprehension questions to accompany the letter (editable version included)
- Student requirements for the project (editable version included)

- Written student reflection for post-project (editable version included)
- Grading rubric (editable version included)
- List of potential resources for your students to use as they research
✔ A bonus file of cover-pages for each of the 50 States (US)
* Perfect if your standards require you to teach about your individual state's ecosystems and habitats!
*Download the preview for full details on how I use the notebook sheets for lessons, research booklets, and to implement project-based learning.
