Week at a Glance Week of 9/15/25 *L=Lesson wb=wildebeest    lf=limiting factor    cc=carrying capacity  BW=Bellwork, pop=population

                   Bio I:  Objectives this week:   (openscied.org)

                    4.A Analyze data using to determine how seasonal changes in rainfall limit food availability in the Serengeti. 

                    4.B Use mathematical representations of empirical evidence related to rainfall and wildebeest location to support claims about the cause of the migration. 

                    4.C Revise a model to include new evidence about factors that affect wildebeest survival to illustrate the patterns and relationships and limits of resources that the wildebeest migration depends on. 

                    5.A Develop and use a kinesthetic and mathematical model to generate evidence to explain how grass is a limiting factor that affects carrying capacity of wildebeest populations within the conditions of                         the Serengeti ecosystem. 

                    5.B Use mathematical representations of data to quantify rates of population change over time to support explanations about the effect of limiting factors on population size. 

                    6.A Use mathematical and/or computational representations to support explanations of factors that affect carrying capacity of ecosystems at different scales.

                    7A. Read informational text to obtain and communicate information about how the rules of the game are designed to model behavior in the Serengeti system.

7B. Use a model to predict interactions in the Serengeti system to generate data to support explanations about group behavior.

7C. Use an algorithmic representation to support explanations about how group behavior increases survival by identifying patterns in mathematical representations.
