Description

Looking for a fun and engaging way to teach about different ecosystems and their environmental concerns? Interested in student driven learning?

This Project Based Learning unit allows students to learn about ecosystems by examining an environmental issue within an ecosystem. Students act as environmentalists as they research the causes and effects as well as problems and solutions of an environmental issue by examining the different factors that make up an ecosystem. This is a student-centered way to teach about ecosystems and could be great to use leading up to Earth Day.

This project features:

  • student note taking pages broken into easy to manage parts
  • instructions for teacher
  • instructions for students
  • rubric
  • peer review forms
  • pictures of student example

Please note: This product does not include websites, books, or articles for students to use when they research. Research is dependent on the teacher. If you would like suggested resources, contact me through Instagram @blossom.curiosity

I used this with my 7th grade class. I liked how it was all ready to go. I used a different rubric and adapted it for my Honors Class (when I have one). But, other than that, it is an easy resource to use and aligns to standards.
