What Can Cause Populations to Change? – 6th Science

This week, 6th graders set up our first driving question board. 

Never in a million years would I have known that this was their first time doing this in science because the questions they asked were SO GOOD.

To develop their questions, students were asked to think about the question, “What can cause populations to change?”

In the end we created 5 categories that we will begin to investigate next week: food/water, other organisms, environment, economics/government, and reproduction.

Stay tuned!

Take a look below at the awesome questions the kids came up with!

Have a great day,

    I am so impressed with the ?s generated by the students. This is what student-owned learning looks like!

    Is that food and water part of a larger category of resources?
