What educators are saying

We loved this, and students were very engaged. Students enjoyed using the game to understand the carbon cycle.
Found this resource a really good way to help consolidate the carbon cycle after students had an introduction to the concept. Very hands on. Very relevant and allowed for great discussion afterwards

Description

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Students will play the role of a carbon atom and simulate the cycling of carbon in the carbon cycle with this fun hands-on rotating stations carbon cycle game!

While playing this carbon cycle game, students will move through seven different carbon reservoirs, acting as a carbon atom. They will roll a die at each station to see where they move next. After students have cycled and filled in their data recording sheet, they will graph and analyze their data and answer conclusion questions. Also included is a 5-question multiple choice formative assessment that you can also use as homework, ticket-out-the-door, or a bell-ringer the next class.

You will receive:

- 7 Beautiful Carbon Reservoir Station Cards – place one at each station with a die

- Student Data Recording Sheet – students record their journey and make observations

- Student Graphing, Analysis, and Conclusion Handout – includes diagramming the Carbon Cycle

- 5-Question Multiple Choice Formative Assessment – may be used as homework, ticket-out-door, or a bell-ringer for the next class

- Teacher Lesson Plan with Guide – complete plan with standards, objectives, pacing, teaching directions, supplemental video links, pacing, and grading suggestions
- Answer Key

Low Prep! Simply print out the 7 stations cards and place them around your classroom with a single die. If you do not have 7 dice, a virtual dice roller option is included.

PDF and Google Slides Versions both included!

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-LS2-3
Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. Emphasis is on describing the conservation of matter and flow of energy into and out of various ecosystems, and on defining the boundaries of the system. Assessment does not include the use of chemical reactions to describe the processes.
NGSSHS-LS2-5
Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere. Examples of models could include simulations and mathematical models. Assessment does not include the specific chemical steps of photosynthesis and respiration.
NGSSHS-LS2-4
Use mathematical representations to support claims for the cycling of matter and flow of energy among organisms in an ecosystem. Emphasis is on using a mathematical model of stored energy in biomass to describe the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another and that matter and energy are conserved as matter cycles and energy flows through ecosystems. Emphasis is on atoms and molecules such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen being conserved as they move through an ecosystem. Assessment is limited to proportional reasoning to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy.
NGSSHS-ESS2-6
Develop a quantitative model to describe the cycling of carbon among the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere. Emphasis is on modeling biogeochemical cycles that include the cycling of carbon through the ocean, atmosphere, soil, and biosphere (including humans), providing the foundation for living organisms.
