This is a unit of work for the Eco-citizen.
A noisy miner bird and a spotted quoll guide students on an investigation to discover the biodiversity that exists in their own schoolyard.
Through a diversity of web-based learning activities, class discussion and practical field work students explore the big question - How is everything connected? Learning experiences allow them to develop a deep understanding of the ways in which people and animals are connected to a place or habitat, to discover how scientists collect and record evidence of the biodiversity, and to put this knowledge into practice in their own schoolyard.
The unit is supported by a comprehensive teacher guide, assessments and guides to making judgments.
