Will they Survive? 6th/4th Crossover Project
In this interdisciplinary project, 4th and 6th-grade students will work together to explore the Arizona state standards for science. The focus will be on the impact of human activities on the environment, the competition for energy and resources in ecosystems, the factors that cause species to change, and the human influences on these factors. At the end of their exploration, they will create a 3D model of an animal and its ecosystem. They will also provide written explanations that present their findings based on environmental data analysis.
Weeks 1-2: The first two weeks of this unit can be completed independently in a 6th-grade classroom only.
Weeks 3-4: 4th and 6th grade students will collaborate to gather and analyze data.
