Students study the Venus Flytrap including its habitat and how it eats.  In this ecology lesson students complete several experiments using a Venus Flytrap to see how it reacts to various conditions. 

Students make lists of producers and consumers and act as consumers that eat producers in a garden. For this producers and consumers lesson plan, students demonstrate a food chain by using a piece of yarn to connect all of them together.

Young scholars, in groups, create a model of food chains to create a food web.

In this understanding evolution instructional activity, 9th graders define homology and analogy. Students compare and contrast similar structures in several given species.
