Lesson Plan: Habitat Fragmentation And Species Survival, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan: Habitat Fragmentation And Species Survival, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 06: Urban Biodiversity
The last two lessons explored how specific events impact biodiversity. This lesson adds to the concept that biodiversity is impacted by events. One such event is a change in land use. Habitat loss and fragmentation in urban settings impacts the survival of many species. Through this sequence of activities, students will find that the more connected and closer the habitat patches, the more likely the population is to survive. After exploring the online simulation, students will consider best practices for designing green space in their own urban area so that species are able to immigrate between the patches and increase …

Lesson Plan: Bird Biodiversity Data Collection (Day 3), Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan: Bird Biodiversity Data Collection (Day 3), Center For Urban Resilience
Module 06: Urban Biodiversity
This is the last lesson where students go outside to collect bird biodiversity data for their field study. In this lesson, students are asked to consider the fragmentation of their study site and the migration patterns of the birds in their site. Again, the goal is to connect to the in-class activities and encourage students to apply the science concepts covered in the classroom to their field study.

Lesson Plan: Analysis And Interpretation Bird Biodiversity Data, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 06: Urban Biodiversity
This lesson is the culminating field site-based lesson in which students analyze the data they have been collecting over the last couple of weeks. Students apply the various scientific concepts they have been learning about biodiversity to make sense of their own data. After analyzing their own data in groups, students present their findings to the entire class. As part of these presentations, the class will discuss the validity of the different groups’ claims and whether they are supported by the data collected from the field as well as the various science concepts they have been learning in class.
