GOALS Analyze the threats posed by invasive species Compare invasive to native species.

YOUR TASK: Alien Invaders Groups of 4: Each group gets a game board -2 people: Choose a Native Species -2 people: Choose an Invasive Species Part 1: on the game board YOU HAVE 25 MINUTES

USE YOUR NOODLE!!! What conclusions can you make about the REPRODUCTIVE RATE of NATIVE and INVASIVE species?

USE YOUR NOODLE!! The Asian Carp is an invasive species moving up The Mississippi River. Watch the video and explain what kind of damage these fish can cause?

YOUR TASK: Catch those Carp After a number of serious injuries from the Asian Carp, Mississipppi River Officials are concerned the problem is getting out of control. They have formulated a list of potential solutions, but need you to rank them in order of efficiency. PART 2: GROUPS of 2: On A whiteboard - Rank the solutions in order of EFFICIENCY. YOU HAVE 20 MINUTES SOLUTIONRANKINGREASON

What are effective ways of limiting the spread of the Asian carp? USE YOUR NOODLE!! INVASIVE SPECIES NOTES PAGE 7 Methods of Limiting The Spread of Invasive Species

Native species often outnumber invasive species. However within 5 to 10 years, Invasive Species severely outnumber the native species. How does this occur? USE YOUR NOODLE:

The invasion of the Asian Shore crab was traced back to a New Jersey port where international cargo ships were dumping ballast water they pumped into their ships while in Asia. How did this lead to the introduction of the Asian Shore crab on the east coast?

REFLECTION: You have been given 50,000 dollars by the EPA to combat the spread of invasive species. Formulate a plan that could be used to help stop the spread of these harmful organisms.
