Lesson Plan: Observing Seasonal Expression Of Migratory Behavior In Pine Siskins, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 11: Bird Migration
The purpose of this lesson is to teach students how to observe migratory bird behavior, using videos of Pine siskins (Spinus pinus) in a laboratory setting. Students will learn how to apply the scientific method to make predictions, observe behaviors, collect data, formulate questions, test hypotheses, draw conclusions, and communicate findings.

Module 08: Urban Environmental Action
In this activity you read about the scavenger families in South America who make their living recycling the city’s trash. Known in the local settings as Recicladores, these families struggle to survive in a world where they are terribly mistreated and considered sub-human by many of the wealthier city residents. These are the same residents who actually depend on the recicladores to have their trash recycled. Consider how these people have been able to help themselves through organizing and working together to better their lives and the conditions in their neighborhoods. In addition, you will use the examples from the …

Lesson Plan: Trees In My City, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 08: Urban Environmental Action
Students have seen how people can actively work to improve the environment. Students will determine current tree / green coverage and why this information is important when planning for change. Students will learn the impacts trees can have on cities and will use understanding to identify tree species and plan future tree plantings in following lessons.

Lesson Plan: Selecting And Synthesizing, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan: Selecting And Synthesizing, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 08: Urban Environmental Action
In this lesson, students examine all of the action plans they have created in the previous seven modules. They will analyze the goals and locations of those plans and look for common themes. Students will agree upon a new idea for an action plan that synthesizes the work they have already done, and reflects the scientific concepts they have learned over the course. As a class, you will create a new action plan that can realistically be implemented.

Lesson Plan: Seven Generations, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 08: Urban Environmental Action
In this lesson, students will consider the benefits and trade-offs of their action plans over an extended period of time. Students will consider and discuss a quote attributed to the Great Law of the Iroquois and predict and complete a timeline of the benefits and tradeoffs of their action plan for ecological communities (human and non-human) seven “generations” into the future. This lesson allows you and your students to consider the future impact of their action plans, and allows your students to consider making any modifications to their action plans.

Lesson Plan: Doing The Action Plan, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 08: Urban Environmental Action
In this lesson students will complete the class action plan that they have been developing and revising throughout the module. Students will carry out each step of the action plan to meet their specific goal to improve their field site/school/community. Students will reflect on their experience and think about continuing these ideas outside of science class.

Lesson Plan: Introducing Biodiversity, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan: Introducing Biodiversity, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 06: Urban Biodiversity
This lesson is designed to elicit student preconceptions about biodiversity and introduce the concept of biodiversity through discussions, reading, and comparing photographs. The first activity students come up with a definition for biodiversity. Then they will evaluate the biodiversity at three different locations along a transect. For the last activity in this lesson, students will read a narrative that explains the science of biodiversity, and clarifies terms and concepts used in the first part of this lesson.

Lesson Plan: Different Measures Of Biodiversity, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan: Different Measures Of Biodiversity, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 06: Urban Biodiversity
The goal of this lesson is to introduce students to different methods of calculating biodiversity and to consider how different biodiversity indices are sensitive to species richness and species evenness. This lesson builds off of the previous lesson where students brainstormed different ways of determining biodiversity. The first activity engages students in developing a way to evaluate which cell-phone plan is best. The goal of the first activity of this lesson is to help students to understand that there are multiple ways to measure something. The second activity introduces four measures of biodiversity (species richness, species evenness, Simpson’s Index and …
