Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length (minutes)	Details
1	Introduction	5	Introduce the topic of ecosystems. Ask students what they know about them.
2	Lesson Explanation	10	Explain components of ecosystems: producers, consumers, decomposers. Use diagrams and examples.
3	Group Activity	10	Divide students into small groups. Assign each group a specific ecosystem (e.g., desert, rainforest) to research and create a poster.
4	Group Presentations	5	Groups will display their posters around the classroom. Briefly walk around to view their work.
5	Conclusion and Review	5	Recap key points about ecosystems. Discuss interdependence using examples. Answer any remaining questions.
6	Exit Ticket	2	Have students write down one thing they learned on a sticky note and place it on the board before leaving.

Assessment

• Monitor group activity and engagement.
• Review posters created in group work for understanding of ecosystems.
• Collect exit tickets to assess individual student learning.

Homework

Assign students to write a short paragraph on their favorite ecosystem, including one example of how organisms interact within it. Collect the paragraphs during the next lesson without requiring presentations.
