Unit Resource- Strand: Living Systems- Standard 3.5,3.6

My Name is Mary Kate Skeppstrom, and I am currently enrolled as a graduate student in the Teacher Licensure Program at the University of Richmond. This site includes 10 days of instruction filled with interactive activities to connect students to content. My goal is to provide students an engaging way to investigate, analyze, and learn about ecosystems. My hope is that while students study and observe varied ecosystems throughout the world, they will come to appreciate the diversity of the plants and animals that make up our global community as well as the vital role each plays in maintaining balance.
