Unit Overview
Big Idea
The BIG idea of Science this unit addresses is that "
Organisms require a supply of energy and materials for which they are often dependent on or in competition with other organisms
"Key concepts like what makes an environment and dependence of living things on each other and on non-living things in the environment contribute towards building this BIG idea.
Key Inquiries
G3U1aKI1 - What separates living things from non-living things in our surroundings?
G3U1aKI2 - How may we protect the environment that helps a variety of living things depend on other living things and non-living things for food, shelter, and material?
Key Conceptual Understanding
G3U1aKI2 - How may we protect the environment that helps a variety of living things depend on other living things and non-living things for food, shelter, and material?
G3U1aCU2 - There exists a wide variety of animals in the environment that can be categorised based on different rules.
G3U1aCU3 - Living things depend on each other and on the non-living things in an environment for food, shelter, and material.
