Bored with your current biome bag of tricks? This bundle is a bountiful bag of biome fun! Travel the globe with seventh graders and explore the biotic and abiotic factors that define our world's biomes. Then, introduce a little...

Thirty percent of the world's oxygen is produced by rainforests found throughout the world. Seventh grade learners explore the processes of photosynthesis and respiration through 10 days of labs, manipulatives, and discussions. They...

Learners analyze food chains, webs, and pyramids to determine how energy flows and matter cycles through ecosystems.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this module, students will learn about the cycles of nature (water, carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus) that support the flow of nutrient matter through an...

This lesson addresses the following questions: What is the efficiency with which energy is converted from trophic level to trophic level? What are the differences between assimilation efficiency, net production efficiency, and ecological...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] When an herbivore eats a plant, the energy in the plant tissues is used by the herbivore. Every time energy is transferred from one organism to another, there is a...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Energy must constantly flow through an ecosystem for the system to remain stable. What exactly does this mean? Essentially, it means that organisms must eat other...

A module that explains what an ecosystem is and how energy and matter move through them. Students will look at the different roles of plants and animals and at ecological relationships in food chains and food webs.

Students review the study of living things and make connections back to Earth's systems. This unit focuses on how various species, grouped in populations and communities, work with the nonliving things around them to ensure survival.

Students explore the biosphere's environments and ecosystems, learning along the way about the plants, animals, resources and natural cycles of our planet. Over the course of lessons 2-6, students use their growing understanding of...
