Ecosystems in Action
by Nature Collective

What living and nonliving things can be found in the San Elijo Lagoon ecosystem? Student scientists will develop critical scientific skills, including observing, recording data, and making claims, as they hike around this exciting ecosystem. Together, students will identify key interactions within the ecosystem, with a special focus on decomposers and human activity. The complete Ecosystems in Action learning unit is aligned to NGSS: 5-LS2-1, 5-ESS3-1, 3-5-ETS1-2, and includes lessons that lead up to and follow up the field trip.
