Ecology Summary
- In this unit, I learned about ecological succession, biotic and abiotic factors, the major biomes, human impact in an environment, and recycling in the biosphere. i learned the most in the succession projects, because that is what I had learned the least about in the past.
- I liked making our find a solution video and the terrarium lab, because I like doing hands on projects. I also liked being able to choose our own groups, because it ensured that I made a good project, and worked efficiency.
- I didn’t like the worksheets that added onto our work throughout the unit, because it took time away from the bigger projects. Also, because the due dates for projects kept being pushed back, the unit didn't reach it's full potential.
- This unit has encouraged me to be more wary about the environment in a variety of ways. I am going to try not to use as much water, to make sure to always pick up my dog’s poop, never trample plants unless they are invasive, and to remove invasive species whenever I see them.
