I don’t think this what they mean by "Going Green"...
We have been really been growing in our classroom...
After much discussion, the students have a very solid understanding of the decomposers' role in the food chain.
Is the food chain part of your curriculum? What experiments do you use to help students under the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers?
mold and bacteria!
You just can’t study food chains and webs without growing some of your
own decomposers.
We
started this experiment a month ago. Partners
placed an apple slice, bread slice, and a piece of cardboard into separate
baggies making sure to label them just in case they became unrecognizable. After taking time to record some observations
in the forms of drawings and words on the sheet below...
each partnership placed their small baggies into a
gallon-sized baggy and found a hiding spot for the baggy somewhere in the
room. (Kind of scary for me when I open
my math manipulatives cabinet and pull out one of these bags!)
This week, we pulled out our experiments for the final
time. You would have thought that we
discovered a secret tunnel to Disney World in our classroom from the glee my
students expressed when we pulled out our experiments for the third and final
time this week. I heard many “Ewwws!”, a
few “Coools!”, and even a “Mine’s got pimples!”After much discussion, the students have a very solid understanding of the decomposers' role in the food chain.
Is the food chain part of your curriculum? What experiments do you use to help students under the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers?
