Wednesday, Mar. 25 th 226 3/25/15 Wed. L.T.: I can categorize individual, population, community, ecosystem, and abiotic factors as I watch a documentary of wildlife in Africa. I can also draw connections between organisms, abiotic factors, and human impact. DO NOW: An ecosystem is a combo of the communities that live in it and the abiotic (non-living) factors that characterize that area. Think of our school. What populations interact here and what abiotic factors are present? …………………………….. Reflection: Did I participate in filling out my right hand side while watching the doc? What thoughts and questions do I have? 227 Title: 60 Minutes – Into the Wild Test Retakes are available TODAY AND TMRW outside of class time!!

Today’s right side wildebeestElephants ChimpsFree: - Place to put down any notes that don’t fit into the other categories (or extra room) In each of the 3 labeled sections, identify at least 1: individual population community ecosystem and important abiotic factor featured in that section. In addition, take notes on how abiotic factors and humans affect wildlife.
