Tell Me About Ireland Project: 5th 6th Science Biodiversity St. Patrick's
- PDF
Description
Strike gold in your 5th/6th Grade Science Class with "Tell me about Ireland: discovering Ireland's Wonders"!
You "got lucky" as this project immerses students in Irish biodiversity and sustainability, all with a St. Patrick's Day twist. Aligned with North Dakota standards, this cross-curricular gem is your pot of gold for fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and presentation skills.
Use the resource for independent work or small groups (group topics: biodiversity, impact of human activity, renewable energy). All projects also include a research prompt to describe geography, climate and ecosystems.
Students are to create visual presentations of their discoveries and share them with a class (my 6th grade practices public speaking and presentation skills with lower grades).
Download now and transform your science class into a St. Patrick's celebration—while talking about beautiful ecosystems and biodiversity of Ireland.
You've just hit the jackpot!
This project is designed to be completed in one week with 3 full blocks (90 mins) but you can customize to your schedule.
Tip: National Biodiversity Data Centre has great data on biodiversity and lots of materials including videos and infographics. Guide students to use publicly available resources from the country they are researching.
