This is a phenomenon video for 3.2.4. Science Phenomena: 3rd grade - Ecosystem Change

This is the first lesson in a set of lessons to teach about animal and plant adaptations and their relation to survival in a Genius Hour Format. Genius Hour is just a process where students choose an interesting topic, generate a deep question and research to find the answer to that question. The students then create a product that showcases that learning. Background knowledge for this lesson uses resources from the State Board of Education and Generation Genius but they are not essential to the lesson. image from pixabay, no attribution required

This video accompanies the "Patterns in Adaptations" lesson plan and provides video footage of animals that live at Utah's Hogle Zoo that have similar adaptations.

Student facing NearPod lessons for the SEEdStoryLines. A free K-6 science curriculum written by teachers and based on both the 5E and GRC models. It is a student-centered curriculum that uses a storyline format to promote wonder, sensemaking, and problem solving. It includes both face-to-face and remote materials. This should be used with the other episodes to cover the standard completely.

This is an interactive, third-grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 3.2.4. It guides students through information and activities about how variations in traits and behaviors can affect the ability of an individual to survive and reproduce.
This resource is a student-ready, three-dimensional SEEd science lesson you can add to your Nearpod library. Many of the phenomena, text, and images come from UEN OER textbooks, Seedstorylines.org, ck12.org, and pixabay.com. Most videos are from youtube.com or pbslearningmedia.org. Many of the simulations were found at phet.colorado.edu, ck12.org, and pbslearningmedia.org. This lesson is unique to Nebo School District but was built with the help of many amazing ideas from teachers throughout Utah.
