S1 Ecology


All of the classroom resources can be found in the PL Pupils > Science > Science S1-3 (BGE) > S1 Ecology folder on the shared Google Drives. Each learning cycle resource includes home learning options as appropriate.

If you want your own copy of the resources, open the file and then from the 'File' menu (or document options button on mobile devices), click on the 'Make a copy' option. This will save the resource to your own Google Drive. Remember to organise your files (you might want to make a Science folder for all of your Science work).

This topic covers the conditions needed for life, animal habitats and their sampling, the importance of plants and the balance of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
