Follow Up/HW: Ecology activity reviewing food chains and food webs.
What are we learning?
Daily Objective: Students will complete guided notes over the ecology unit.
TEKS/AP/Standards: 12C (R) SWBAT Analyze the flow of matter and energy through trophic
levels using various models including food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids.
How will we learn it?
Learning Activities: Students will complete guided notes. Students will analyze different food
chains and food webs. Students will be introduced to the 10% rule and will apply it to their
food chain. Students will also identify organisms in their food chains who are autotrophs,
heterotrophs, and the different levels of consumers.
