Lesson Plans

Lesson Plan

This lesson begins with students engaging in the practice of science -- observing the phenomena, describing their observations, and making sense of what they see. They observe annelid behaviors using a Shape of Life video with the audio turned off. They try to figure out what the phenomenon (the behavior) is, how it might help the organism survive, and how it might impact the environment. Working with a partner, they make hypotheses about what they are observing and organisms' adaptions that allow it to perform the behavior.

Lesson Plan

There are three separate lessons here based on questions.A list of questions about the characteristics of annelids to use after viewing the video Annelids: Powerful and Capable Worms.A Shape of Life: Annelids worksheet. Students make sketches and write short answers to questions about the amazing world of annelids. This was created by Rachel Miller from Science From Scratch.A Powerpoint with question to use while watching the video Annelids: Powerful and Capable Worms.
