This week we will be trying to accomplish two goals:
- Develop a diagram that models the connections between different populations in an ecosystem
and
- Construct an explanation of the different types of interactions between organisms that may occur in an ecosystem.
To achieve the first goal students will attempt to create and revise a model using pictures of organisms that may exist in an ecosystem in our area. We will then talk about those connections and introduce some vocabulary words and then take a look around Timothy's campus to see these connections in action!
At the end of the week we will begin our second goal which will include a group project about symbiotic relationships.
