Making a Terrarium Lesson Plan, Building, Plants Design, Teaching Science Activity - 1 views

    • Andrew Todd
       
      Standard: 1.NS.3 - Observe, describe and ask questions about living things and their relationships to their environments.
    • Andrew Todd
       
      Extension: Students could maintain terrariums for various lengths of time, depending on the goals behind building the terrariums. Students could make representations of what they have observed over time in the terrariums.

      Adaptation: ELL students could work with English Speaking students to bridge the language gap needed when following instructions for making terrariums. ELL students could also get support from English Speaking students when writing down what they observe, because it may be unfamiliar language. Graphs and charts could be made as a class, to keep track of height of plants and number of insects.

    Students can learn, step by step, how to construct a terrarium so to see how insects and plants interact in a controlled environment.
