In this unit, students explore science phenomena of the life forms that live on Earth, analyzing the cellular structures that make up complex organisms and figuring out how different groups of cells work together to keep the organism functioning properly. This page shows extracts from each part of this lesson.
In this unit, students focus on science phenomena related to the diversity of life, analyzing how scientists use the fossil record to tell of how life has evolved over time. In this lesson, students then compare the phenomena of cellular diversity in fungi, plant, and animal cells, exploring how similarities can be used to support evolutionary relationships. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.
In this unit, students explore the phenomena of forest ecosystems, studying the science phenomena of interactions between living things and the environment. In this lesson, students investigate how plants carry out photosynthesis to convert the sun’s energy into a form of energy they can use to grow and develop. This page highlights key parts of this lesson.
