Semana 17: 4.2.3. Relation among biotic factors: intraspecific and intraspecific interactions.

4.2.3. Relation among biotic factors: intraspecific and intraspecific interactions.

Experience: Observe the images from the book "New learning Science" PAGE 28.
listen to the keywords and label the pictures.

Reflection: Thinking Strategie, see - think - wonder.

Conceptualizatión: Read the following information and make a conceptual map in your notebook. Draw.

As you have learned, all organisms interact with each other, and these interactions are necessary for the survival of an ecosystem. 

There are intraspecific and interspecific relationships. 

Interspecific relationships: Are interactions between the organisms belonging to different species. 

For example

Competition	Mutualism
Picture 9.	Picture 10.
Predation	Parasitism
Picture 11.	Picture 12.
Commensalism
Picture 13.

Intraspecific relationships: are interaction between organisms that belong to the same species.

For example 

Cooperation	Competition

Picture 14.

Application: Reading and exercise from the book "New learning Science" page 29.

Semana 14 y 15: HOW DOES THE ENERGY FLOW IN AN ECOSYSTEM?

HOW DOES THE ENERGY FLOW IN AN ECOSYSTEM?

A food chain shows how each living thing gets food, and energy is passed from organism to organism. The energy moves from producers to each consumer level (Trophic levels). 

Experience: Watch the video.

REFLECTION: make a list of all trophic levels from the video.

CONCEPTUALIZATION: LIBRO NEW LEARNING SCIENCE, PÁGINA 32, READING, EXERCISE AND LISENING. 

KHAN ACADEMY: KEY TERMS, TERMS AND MEANING.

ENLACE:  KEY TERMS

EXAMPLES, EXERCISES AND KEY TERMS

APPLICATION TEAMWORK: 

Form groups of three strudents and ask each group to choose an ecosystem and make a simple food chain. Each student should draw a level of the pyramid. In the end, link each level with a string and ask students to explain the food chain to their classmates.

Semana 13: 4.1.3 Types of ecosystems: freshwater, marine, forest, savanna, desert and moorland

4.1.3 Types of ecosystems: freshwater, marine, forest, savanna, desert and moorland.

There are two main types of ecosystems: terrestrial and aquatic. 

• Terrestrial ecosystems:  can be found on land.
