What educators are saying

My students always love a good webquest. This one was very easy to follow and the links worked perfectly.
I didn't have the usual amount of time I have to do my ecology unit. This was a great way to cover a lot of information quickly.

Description

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ In this ecosystem ecology webquest, students will complete four online tasks to learn about ecological levels and factors, food chains and webs, energy pyramids, ecological relationships, biodiversity, and more!


Students will learn about and apply knowledge of ecosystem ecology it through engaging short videos, tutorials, interactives, and even a build-your-own ecosystem game. Editable MS Word, PDF, and Google Slides all included! This webquest makes a great introduction, review, absent student work, sub-plan, guided practice, or student-led teaching tool.


TOPICS

-Ecosystems

-Biodiversity

-Biological Levels

-Symbiotic Ecological Relationships

-Abiotic and Biotic Factors

-Building Food Webs

-Analyzing Trophic Levels

-Building a Sustainable Ecosystem (Virtual Lab Game)


ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS ⭐
-How is matter and energy transformed in an ecosystem?
-What is the difference between abiotic and biotic factors?
-What are the components of an ecosystem?
-What are the differences and similarities between food chains, food webs, and energy pyramids?
-How is energy reduced as you move up trophic levels?
-Why is biodiversity important?
-What symbiotic relationships exist between organisms in an ecosystem?

Students will follow clear directions to answer chunked questions as they move through the virtual activities. All activities are free, require no login, and are safe. The student handout includes full URLs, tiny URLs, and QR codes to help your students easily reach each virtual activity to immediately begin learning and applying their new knowledge. Longer URLs are also provided. Your students will have no confusion as they move through the activities and will be on task, having fun, and learning!

The editable student handout will guide your students through the entire lesson, with clear questions and answers that align to NGSS standards and the online resources. Interactives, simulations, videos, and games are used to teach about ecosystem ecology.

Students will lead their own learning as they complete this editable, printable, and digital ecosystem ecology webquest. All non-flash modern resources are used - works beautifully on PC, Mac, iPads, tablets, and most modern cellular devices.

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.
