This activity goes over the effect of ocean currents (El Nino) and the affects it has on weather and climate. SPI 0507.8.1 Describe the effects of the oceans on weather and climate.

Students will explore the relationship between speed and energy by dropping a marble into a bucket of sand and dropping a ball of play-doh on the ground. By the end of this lab students should know that:· Transfer of energy between objects can change the shape of colliding objects. · Faster objects have more energy as evidenced by greater change in shape. For example if you drop a ball into sand as compared to throwing a ball into the sand from the same height, what is the difference in the sha

This is a graphic organizer students can use to list the cause and effects of human actions on the environment.

This activity will assess the students' knowledge of predators, prey, producers, consumers, herbivores, omnivores, carnivores, food chains, and food webs.
