Arthropods 6th Grade Mini Lab-Observing Sowbugs
Do Now… • Define Regeneration and Arthropods on index cards. • Review Self Check Questions pg. 511
Objectives • Students will… • List the features used to classify arthropods • Explain how the function of the exoskeleton relates to its function
Arthropods • Characteristics of Arthropods • 1) Invertebrates (no backbone) • 2) Bilateral symmetry • 3) Exoskeleton (rigid body covering that protects and supports the body and reduces water loss • 4) Jointed appendages (helps with movement) • 5) Segmented Bodies (head, thorax and abdomen)
Mini Lab: Observing Sow Bugs • Purpose: To observe and identify sow bug reactions to wet and dry conditions • Lab Procedures/Instructions • Safety Precautions • Answer lab questions
For Next Time… • Finish Lab if needed. • Read pgs. 517-518 • Define appendage, exoskeleton and metamorphosis on index cards
Echinoderms 6th Grade Pgs. 517-518
Do Now… • How are centipedes and millipedes different?
Objectives • Students will… • Identify features of echinoderm • Examine the differences between Complete Metamorphosis and Incomplete Metamorphosis
Metamorphosis • Complete Metamorphosis (Bees, Butterflies, Ants, Beetles pg. 513)
Metamorphosis • Incomplete Metamorphosis (grasshoppers, cockroaches, termites, dragonflies pg. 513)
Visualizing Arthropod Diversity • Pgs. 514-515 • Volunteer Readers to share information?
Echinoderms • Examples of Echinoderms: sea stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, and sea cucumbers. • Characteristics of Echinoderms • 1) radial symmetry • 2) spines (for protection) • 3) simple nervous system • 4) No head or brain • 5) Some are predators, some are filter feeders and others feed on decaying matter
Water Vascular System and Cool facts • Water Vascular System- A net work of water-filled canals and thousands of tube feet. • Tube feet help the echinoderm to move and capture prey • Have a unique way of eating---pushes its stomach out and into the opened shell of its prey • Can regenerate lost or damaged parts!
For Next Time… • Complete Self Check Questions #1-4 pg. 518 in science notebook. • Echinoderms Part 1 • Echinoderms Part 2
