How Animals Use Their Senses to Find Food Students consider how animals solve the problem of finding food, especially under harsh climatic conditions.	6-8	Lesson Plan
Chain Reaction This inquiry-based Nature lesson plan will challenge students to design and conduct scientifically valid experiments to evaluate hypotheses regarding an animal’s expected behavior in response to changes in its environment.	9-11	Lesson Plan
Living vs. Nonliving Students explore the chracteristics that distinguish living from nonliving things.	K-5	Lesson Plan
Adaptation Students examine some of the behaviors and physical characteristics that enable organisms to live successfully in their environment.	6-8	Lesson Plan
Animal Hearing Students explore how sound is created, the importance of hearing in certain environments and some environmental causes of hearing loss.	6-8	Lesson Plan
The Coral Reef Ecosystem Students examine a coral reef ecosystem to learn about its living and non-living parts and how they interact. They apply what they have learned to explore the world's biomes, including how the animals in each are adapted to their environment.	6-8	Lesson Plan
