Colonies, Clusters, and ClassroomsIn this nine week unit of study, students are studying animals to learn how they behave and care for one another within their communities. This project was inspired by the New Generation Science Standard (NGSS) about Social Interactions and Group Behavior: How do organisms interact in groups so as to benefit individuals?
Students will research a variety of animal communities through fieldwork, experts, non-fiction texts and online resources. Then, we will take what we have learned about animals and apply it to our own class and school community. Students will use their knowledge of animal behaviors in communities to create school wide norms.
