Week 5

1. What did you learn this week?

One thing I learned this week was the concept of animals helping each other. In the video my group was assigned, we learned that some animals will team up and both benefit from each other. For example, some alligators team up with birds to help get their teeth clean. Or frogs will team up with tarantulas as the frogs receive food and shelter, and the tarantulas receive relief from biting ants.  

2. How can you apply what you've learned to your teaching in the future? 

This week we created our own food chain for the marine life. This will be useful in my future classroom as it will be important to show students examples or food chains, and how to create one. 

Here is a picture of my groups food web!

3. Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew? 

This week we discussed and worked through a 5E model lesson. Last week we discussed what a 5E model was, and each of the different components and this week we got to see it in action. 

Here is an update on our fast plant!
