Grade/Subject: Grade 5__ Unit: Unit A: Interactions and Ecosystems__ Lesson Duration: _75 Minutes_
1
Teacher/Student Actions: I will interact with the students to ensure they aren’t off track and having a brief discussion with
students to ensure they are looking for important features that contribute to defining what the ecosystems consist of.
Guiding/Prompting Questions: Q: What are some things that you notice when you look around, is there vegetation or is it
dry with barely any life around, describe the environment. A: Depending on the ecosystem they are looking at; they will
describe if there are lots of trees or animals around them.
Performance Indicators: If students are able to find major differences between the ecosystems and can notice what causes
the ecosystems to differ such as weather or resources, then I will be able to assess their performance with the app.
STEP 4: CLOSURE/CLIFFHANGER
Reinforcement/Assessment of Learning: Now that we have finished our lab, please hand in your worksheets that contain the
differences between the ecosystems.
Feedback from Students: Feedback from the students will include their ideas throughout the lab and their engagement during the
lab and worksheet. Other feedback from students will be when I receive their worksheets and see is they could appropriately
describe the ecosystems without in class once the use of VR is over.
Feedback to Students: See if students were able to fill out the worksheet with an abundance of differences.
Advance Organizer: Next class we will be watching videos about these individual ecosystems and learning about the prey and
predator relationships that sustain life in these ecosystems.
