5.3.1 Grade 5 Grade 4 Grade 3 Grade 2 Ecosystems

  Sticky Note: Grades 2-5 all have portions of Life Sciences devoted to ecosystems and this project could be easily manipulated to focus on different aspects of an ecosystem. I would give specific guidelines in some cases, especially for younger grades, but it would be great to allow older students to have time to brainstorm the kind of ecosystem they wanted to complete and allow them to go through the research process to create a good replica of that ecosystem.

5.3.1 Observe and classify common Indiana organisms as producers, consumers, decomposers, predator and prey based on their relationships and interactions with other organisms in their ecosystem. I would use parts A and C as descriptions of the project and disregard part B.

  You might also want to add a "life science" tag to this activity to make it easier for your colleagues to find and use.

  Extension: Students can create mobiles to reveal their understanding of the rainforest ecosystem. Using coat hanger wire and string, students can construct a three-dimensional "dependence web" utilizing the animal and people-characters in The Great Kapok Tree.

  Have students take home feeders and hang them outside homes. Then have them make predictions about activity level and write down observations every evening for a week. Hang a feeder outside of the school and compare results.

Make a Hummingbird feeder: A little complicated, so maybe get a couple of parent volunteers to help with this project. Make a literary connection by reading a story about hummingbirds, then discuss how they fit in our ecosystem.
