09+Biome+Stories

Activity Update Pending

This week we will learn about biomes, the benefits of having species diversity, and what efforts are underway to preserve that diversity. In this week, all four ways of thinking will frame how we think about our relationship with the natural world.
 * How are humans affecting other life forms on earth? **


 * Relevant standard example to share with your students:** Grade 7. ELA. RI.7 Integrate information presented in different media or formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively) as well as in words to develop a coherent understanding of a topic or issue.

Classroom procedures and expectations should not be something that is only referenced on the first day of class and never reviewed. Instead, they should be constantly used and reinforced. This week, as students go outside to explore biomes at ASU, it is a good time to review expectations for high-quality work and using time wisely and efficiently during class.
