Intro to Biological Interactions. Video sheet

This Science Video Worksheet is one page and has an answer key in a very simple format that is designed for quick correction.

This video is designed to help introduce Middle School students and beyond to the vocabulary for the major biological interactions that are short-term (predation; pollination; seed dispersal) and long-term (competition, parasitism, mutualism, commensalism, amensalism).

We made this video and it is free to access on our YouTube channel, which is dedicated to educational content for children.

NGSS: MS-LS2-1, MS-LS2-2, MS-LS1-4

This video may be convenient for lesson planning for a substitute teacher, especially if needed on short notice.

This document provides the questions in paper and multiple digital formats, directly or via links to shared drives, which you can then download.

Digital formats may save teachers time correcting homework, identifying common errors, and entering individual scores into gradebooks – and some can teach students by giving immediate feedback. The formats include:

Blackboard
Canvas
Google Forms
Microsoft Forms
Moodle
Respondus

We provide links to a shared folder which contains Google Slides that can be presented in class as a way to review the worksheet or shared electronically with students (e.g., downloaded as a PowerPoints and email, or share a link in your Google Drive).
