Lesson Objective: SWBAT take an Ecosystems/Carbon Cycle Science Assessment to demonstrate their understanding of the scientific concepts and earn a 3 or higher on the assessment.
NGSS: MS-ESS2-1; MS-LS2-3
NGSS: MS-ESS2-1; MS-LS2-3
- Do Now: SWBAT identify the biotic and abiotic factors on the handout; Study notes for assessment.
- Whole class: TW review classroom protocols. TW administer Ecosystems/Carbon Cycle Science Assessment.
- Collaborative group: None today due to assessment.
- Independent practice: SWBAT take assessment. SWBAT go to NASA climate kids - "Power-up" for more understanding of carbon footprints.
