Sorry about the beginning it was
supposed to say Because of Class
updates and tech issues if you were not
able to observe the session use the
quizizz.

Beginning of the
cycle

● Now that you have one sword.

Let’s give it style with the Ninja
blade to slice through anything
this cycle ma bring.

● We should have time today so

be on-task to get to the work-
time

Grades

Standard

SEV1. Obtain, evaluate, and
communicate information to
investigate the flow of energy and
cycling of matter within an ecosystem.
b. Develop and use a model based on
the Laws of Thermodynamics to
predict energy transfers
throughout an ecosystem (food
chains, food webs, and trophic
levels).

Learning Target

I can define an organism's niche

when talking about energy
transfer in an ecosystem.

Vocabulary for Energy in Ecosystems

●Where do we put the term?

●What is the definition?

●Do you know any examples?

●What would a characteristic
be?.

How can we keep track of the jobs organisms have in the ecosystem?

How well do you think of a role

●If I told you that a beaver had a
role in the Yellowstone national
park

●Would you think his role is

●To eat the deer

●To eat vegetation and make
homes for other animals

●To eat seeds and fly around

●Grazing on plant vegetation in
the meadow.

Poll

What is the role of the beaver

• to consume deer

• To fly and search for berries and worms

• Grazing on the grass in the meadow

• To eat trees like Poplar and build homes out of it

Beaver Niche

●Beavers are ecological
engineers by their role as a
herbivore.

As young Indiana Jones adventurers we come across beavers and need to write about them to our colleagues. We tell them that ​Beavers are consumers.
Let's be specific what type of consumers are they?

Fantastic Four

Monday –Thursday we
learn material about
science
This week we will write
in the fantastic four for
Monday what we
learned about animal's
niche is observed and
studied in an
ecosystem.

Weekly
Check

Herbivores eat plants
during this week we will
explain how carnivores,
herbivores, and omnivores
are consumers

This week we will discuss
producers and what is
different about them.

What is a community

● Who will be the valiant

warrior to answer as
many members as
possible in a specific
biome?

In ecology, we relate this transfer of energy by showing food chains

or food webs to illustrate that flow of energy.

At each level, some of the energy transfers from the previous level,

and some is transferred to the environment.

The way the energy is used or converted will depend on the

type of role the organism has in the ecosystem.

Since environmental
science studies the

relationships

between organisms

and their

environment, we
label these food
chains with the

organism's niche as
well as their name.

Bozeman

Progress Learning –

Energy Transfer

🔶 Log into progress learning from Clever.

🔶 Select sudy plan from the main page.

🔶 Click on the SEV 1c.

🔶 Watch the Eutrophication video and answer the questions.

🔶 Complete the task.

🔶This is a graded assignment to complete.

🔶 Do not skip ahead. We will work on the other activities later
in the week.

✅ Give a green check when you are finished!

Lesson Summary

➢A Science Fair project has specific
elements that are required.
➢ I can investigate something that I am

interested in for my Science Fair project.

➢ I can research my idea.
➢ The first law of thermodynamics explains

that energy changes form in an ecosystem
but it doesn’t disappear.

➢ The second law of thermodynamics

explains that most energy in an ecosystem
is used to help the organism survive and is
not available at the next level.

➢ Each organism has a niche in the energy

relationship.

Identify the producers, primary
consumers. What is the role of
the merlin?

consumer decomposer producer

Draw an arrow to match
the word to its example

Match

Match the following

Consumer

producer

decomposer

Detritovore

• Consumer

• producer

• decomposer

• Detritovore

What’s the difference?

Detritivores eat the remains
of dead plants and animals.

●Crabs, mites,
earthworms, snails

Decomposers break down
organic matter and feed on
it.

●Bacteria, fungi

Complete this
page. Define niche
and the terms on
the picture.

Science Fair

Look at the ideas you have.
Pick the one you think you
would like to do.

Now start researching to see
what information you can find
out.

Copy the urls and keep them
with your notes.

We will work on your
hypothesis on Thursday.

Pick your best idea
and start to do
research.
You need at least 3
sources.
If you might use
more copy the
