Abstract
In this place-based 5E lesson, students investigate the life cycles of six different animal species that can be found at the Gulf Islands National Seashore (GINS). After observing pictures of the young and adult animals and reading a short informational text, students use models to describe and compare the life cycles of these animals in collaboration with their peers. They also consider how habitat conservation at GINS impacts the recovery of endangered and threatened species at different points in their life cycles.
