Lesson 1: What is an Ecosystem?
Students define the term ecosystem and develop their ideas using Think, Pair, Share. Students are given the definition of biotic and abiotic components and must place the correct feature into the correct heading. Students are introduced to a number of new key words to which they must match the meaning with the definition. Students are then to annotate a diagram of an ecosystem using key information. Finally students are to answer an Exam Question: Describe the features of a small-scale Ecosystem, depending on time this could be peer assessed by their partners. As a plenary students must explain why ducks are a good example of consumers.
