We are learning about ecosystems for our Unit of InquirySharing the Planet. To start out, we looked at a few websites and videos to introduce ourselves to our central idea; Ecosystems rely on biodiversity to maintain the balance they require to thrive. we also used our prior knowledge from previous Units of Inquiry to plan what we would have to do.

After we were introduced to our Unit of Inquiry, we wrote answers to these questions. It helped
show what we already knew about it.

Once we all shared our thoughts, we divided into groups. Each group then summarized what each question sheet said.
