Description
This is a set of 36 enrichment and review task cards for your lessons on Community Ecology. Students will explore community interactions such as competition, resource partitioning, predation, mimicry, and symbiosis. Students will apply their critical thinking skills to the concepts of mutualism, parasitism, commensalism, and primary and secondary succession. Key vocabulary words are thoroughly covered. Printable and digital versions are included. The questions cover all the topics you would expect to find in a traditional high school biology textbook. A detailed list of the topics covered can be found below.
Both printable and digital versions of this resource are included. The student handouts and task cards can be printed or used in the paperless digital format in your Google Drive, Google Classroom, Microsoft OneDrive, or similar.
Both Google Slides and Google Forms versions are included.
Suitable for biology students in grades 9 - 12. This resource is perfect for traditional classroom settings, 1:1 schools, or for distance learning.
The task cards were written to accompany my Community Ecology Powerpoint and Notes Set, but they can easily and appropriately be used with any unit studying communities.
