Students will have a tangible learning experience and a wonderful phenomenon based activity to begin our lesson sequence on energy in ecosystems. We will dissect owl pellets and use our data collection to learn about predator-prey relationships, energy flow in ecosystems, and construction of food webs and food chains. Students will “do science” in what may be their first ever laboratory activity. The resources from Carolina Biological will allow my Environmental Science students to complete this dissection in pairs. Several of the materials are re-usable and will make an impact for years to come!
