Coriolis Effect/Ocean Currents Webquest for Online/Remote/Distance Learning

Created by

Schulze Science

Need a resource your kids can do online? This webquest is designed to allow students to teach themselves about the Coriolis Effect, El Nino, and the causes of ocean currents and their effect on Earth's climate. These websites do an excellent job of walking students through these concepts. The Coriolis Effect can be particularly confusing, but the website's use of animations, images, and simple, straightforward laguage has consistently helped my students to understand these difficult concepts.

Owl Pellet Ecosystem Analysis- Trophic Pyramid and Energy Flow

Created by

Aquanaut's Science Supply Store

Kids typically say that they "did" owl pellets in middle school, but they rarely can come up with any understanding or explanation as to what they were doing or why. This ecosystem lab is good for an advanced biology or environmental science class and takes owl pellet dissection to the level it should be. Students will dissect owl pellets and identify prey, but use that data (and some basic research) to reconstruct a trophic level pyramid and calculate energy flow in an ecosystem. Dissectio
