Picture
Learning target;
I can identify point and non point pollution sources.
You learned the difference between point and nonpoint sources of pollutatns and how there pollutants could affect the acosystems of Puget Sound then indirectly the ecosystem services upon which we rely.
The picture is from the demonstration of pollutants entering the storm drains then the watersystems that end up in the Puget Sound.
The BillNye video reinforced what we know about the ocean as part of the carbon cycle.

Puget Sound Ecosystem Services

6/4/2012

 
Learning targets:I can identify the ecosystems of the puget Sound.
                         I can identify the resources of the Puget Sound.

You all use the Puget Sound area in some way. Today you identified the different ecosystems and the services those ecosystems provide. Thinking about what you have learned in social studies you were able to give an opinion as to whether those sevices contributed to the sustainability of the region.

Questions

6/1/2012

 
Today we worked on the limiting factors and the questions section of the rubric.
many of you stated that you felt like Dissolved oxyge, water beetles and temperature were the greatest limiting factors. you were also able to provide evidence to support your ideas. Well done!

For the questions I noticed that many of you chose the question : how do we increase the amount of Dissolved oxygen in the pond? I am excited to see your ideas.
