The Ecology: Interactions Unit covers ecology topics associated with the topic: Everything Is Connected to Each Other: Biological Organization, Competition, Food Webs, Predator Prey Relationships, Camouflage, Mimicry, Adaptations, Feeding Relationships and Exotic Species. (See list below for more topics covered). This unit includes an interactive and engaging Powerpoint Presentation of 800+ slides with built in class notes (Red Slides), lab activities, project ideas, discussion questions, assessments (Quiz Wiz), and challenge questions with answers. Text is in large print (32 font) and is placed at the top of each slide so it can seen and read from all angles of a classroom. Also included is a 8 page (Microsoft 2003 word doc.) assessment / bundled homework that chronologically goes with the slideshow for nightly homework and the end of the unit assessment, as well as a 6 page modified assessment. 8 pages of class notes (Word doc.) with images are also included for students who require modifications, as well as answer keys to both of the assessments for support professionals, teachers, and homeschool parents. 10 video shorts (FLV files) are provided and a slide within the slideshow cues teacher / parent when the videos are most relevant to play.
