Presentation Transcript

  1. Ecological Hierarchy How we organize our world, from smallest to largest

  2. Match up your 5 cards with the 5 correct definitions • 3 minutes to figure it out with our table group. • Copy it into your notebook in the following order:

  3. The Ecological Hierarchy Organism (smallest) Population Community Ecosystem Biome (largest)

  4. Real Life Example Deer 40 Deer that graze in the same field 40 deer, 3 types of grasses, birds, rabbits Prairie ecosystem Grassland biome in North America

  5. What is our school ecological hierarchy? • Start with an organism (you!)

  6. Pages 48-49 • Interpret the visual as a class • Create your own visual with your own poster and your choice of biomes. • Explore different biomes on pages 30-37 for ideas if you are stuck. • REQUIREMENTS: • Color and neatness • Labels and a description of each of the 5 steps in the ecological hierarchy • A visual representation of the relationship between the 5 steps (i.e. you should be able to tell which is smallest and which is the largest step in the hierarchy) • Choose a specific biome and have accurate animals (a shark would not exist in a desert biome, for example)

  7. Exit ticket Put the ecological hierarchy in the correct order from smallest to largest: *Community, ecosystem, population, biome, organism.
