Modelling Predator-Prey Relationships

About this ProductThis lesson is the third in the series of modelling populations using EXCEL. The first was Modelling Population Growth where students modeled an unconstrained population to explore exponential growth when there is an abundance of resources and no limitations for growth. The second was Modelling Competition where students explored a population when competition for resources is taken into consideration. This third lesson takes the students through modelling the relationship bet

Measurement and Data: Picture Graphs and Bar Graphs

This is a bundle of four lessons designed to teach students how to construct picture graphs and bar graphs. The lessons are based on the Common Core State Standards Grade 2 Measurement & Data: Represent and Interpret data. The lesson design uses a Learning Cycle that incorporates a three-phase model to encourage meaningful learning, particularly found to be effective for activities involving data collection and analysis. The theme running through the four lessons is ‘Day at the Beach’ where a

Modelling Competition - Exploring Population Growth

About this productIn this lesson, which students can use as an independent activity, or one you could deliver via remote learning, the students will be provided with a scenario where a population of an organism is competing for resources in a particular habitat. In this case the scenario is Rainbow Trout Farming in a lake. The student workbook is designed in a way that the students will be guided through developing a model using EXCEL to explore the population growth of the trout taking into con

Teaching style

Scientific discoveries were made through investigations. I was in scientific research before teaching, and I cannot think of teaching science in any other way. I believe that teaching should focus not just on engaging students in the classroom, but also in developing their conceptual understanding.
