MARTONEN- ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE LESSON PLANS- 5/8/17
HIGH SCHOOL CONTENT STANDARDS ADDRESSED
HS-LS2-1: Use mathematical and/or computational representations to support explanations of factors that affect carrying capacity of ecosystems at different scales.
HS-LS2-2: Use mathematical representations to support and revise explanations based on evidence about factors affecting biodiversity and populations in ecosystems of different scales.
HS-LS2-6: Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem. **
HS-LS2-7: Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity.* **
HS-LS2-8: Evaluate the evidence for the role of group behavior on individual and species’ chances to survive and reproduce.
HS-LS4-6: Create or revise a simulation to test a solution to mitigate adverse impacts of human activity on biodiversity. **
HS-LS4-1: Communicate scientific information that common ancestry and biological evolution are supported by multiple lines of empirical evidence.
HS-LS4-2: Construct an explanation based on evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors: (1) the potential for a species to increase in number, (2) the heritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutation and sexual reproduction, (3) competition for limited resources, and (4) the proliferation of those organisms that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment.
MONDAY-
1) Issues and decisions- Exxon Valdez Oil Spill- read and answer questions for a grade.
2) Issues and decisions- Is burning the best way to clean oil spill- read and answer questions for a grade.
3) Lab 20- oil spill cleanup- make plan for oil spill clean up for Wednesday
TUESDAY-
1)Chapter 15- notes and discussion of 15.1, 2, & 3.
2)Chapter 15 review sheet- finish
3) Devise plan for oil spill clean up
WEDNESDAY-
1) Oil spill clean up- each table will be rated on effectiveness by how much oil is removed in a little time as possible. Clean up oil spill at the end of procedure.
2) Chapter 15 review sheet- finish
