My Project
In 6th grade science, students explore ecosystems and how the organisms within them interact and depend on one another. A key focus of this unit is learning about food chains and food webs.
To provide a rich, hands-on learning experience, students will participate in an owl pellet dissection.
This activity allows students to investigate real-world evidence of predator-prey relationships and better understand the trophic levels within a food chain.
By identifying the remains of various organisms, students will gain a clearer picture of energy transfer through an ecosystem and how each organism plays a role in maintaining balance. This hands-on experience deepens understanding and fosters engagement in ecological studies.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
