Students learn best through hands-on experiences where the content learned in class becomes more authentic and personable. This is especially true for science labs. However, providing each student with enough material for labs can be challenging when dealing with expendable supplies. During such labs, students often share resources due to funding restrictions for lab supplies. While this is okay for most labs, there are some labs that arguably generate a better learning outcome when each student receives his/her/their own supplies, such as the owl pellet lab. When students have their own owl pellet, they will be able to engage in the lab at their own pace and make their own discoveries during dissection of the owl pellet. The owl pellet lab is a foundational lab for our ecology unit. It addresses the dynamic nature of food webs. This lab also provides a segue into a reading and discussion on the topic of biomagnification, the concept that toxins (e.g. mercury) increase in potency in the tissue of animals at higher trophic levels (e.g. swordfish). The final part of the lab challenges students to think about the consequences of polluting the environment. This entire lab will inspire students to make connections to larger environmental issues and become more informed about the food they eat.
