Biology 10/14-10/18

This week our goal is to learn about cooperative behavior with different animal species and learn & understand how this affects their survival.

Monday
Video - Fire Ants...colony work, physics of fire ant rafts, etc.  There will be a reflection due by Friday, 4pm over this video.  Please make sure it's completed by that time.

Tuesday
Begin discussing cooperative animal behavior.  Have students brainstorm animal species that exhibit cooperative animal behavior.  Then allow students to choose from a list of five specific animals that work together cooperatively.  Begin working on a presentation over your findings.  This is phase one on this project.

Wednesday
Cooperative behavior project phase two

Thursday
Cooperative behavior project phase two, three

Friday
Wrap up cooperative behavior project with cooperative learning
