1 4.01 Junior Environmental Activities On File TM Exploring Habitats Study Habitat Drawings to Identify Living Things & Nonliving Conditions INTRODUCTION A habitat is made up of both living (biotic) and nonliving (abiotic) parts. The nonliving parts include sunlight, wind, water, soil, and rocks. The living parts may include humans, birds, butterflies, fish, flowers, trees, insects any of the millions of life-forms found on Earth that are suited to that particular habitat. In this activity, you will examine drawings of two different habitats. Then you will identify the living and nonliving items in each drawing and count how many there are of each kind. TIME NEEDED 20 minutes WHAT YOU NEED Pond Habitat ID Card (photocopy next page) Meadow Habitat ID Card (photocopy next page) field log (Activity 1.01) or notebook pencil or pen Safety Precautions Please click on the checkmark to view the safety guidelines. WHAT YOU DO 1. Please photocopy each of the habitat drawings. Examine them and decide which items shown are biotic parts of the habitat and which are abiotic. If you are not sure, think about what it means to be a living thing. Does it need food? Water? Shelter? If the answers are "yes," it is living.
2 Junior Environmental Activities On File TM 4.01 Habitat ID Cards Card #1 # of Living Things: # of Nonliving Things: Pond Card #2 # of Living Things: # of Nonliving Things: Meadow
3 4.01 Junior Environmental Activities On File TM 2. Write the names of the living and nonliving items in your field log or notebook. If you don t know the exact name, you can write down the kind of living or nonliving thing ( rock, bird, tree, etc.). When you re finished, count the biotic and abiotic items you found on each card and write the number of each in the spaces provided. OUR FINDINGS Click on the above link to see what we found. Follow-Up Look at the habitat drawings again. Think about factors that might affect the habitats. What effect could weather changes, such as drought or a long cold spell, have on them? What effect could pollution have? What effect could sudden growth in the nearby human population have on these habitats? Words to Know habitat biotic abiotic
4 Junior Environmental Activities On File TM SAFETY Safe Science Procedures IMPORTANT: It is both fun and educational to learn science by doing science but experiments and field trips are no fun if you get hurt. Read and follow the safety tips on this page and the next. Then copy these two pages. Post them in your science activity area. Keep them in your science journal or log. Smart scientists are safe scientists. Special Safety Note to Experimenters Each experiment includes a short list of special safety precautions that are relevant to that particular project. However, these do not include all of the basic safety precautions that are necessary whenever you are working on a scientific experiment. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary that you read, copy, and remain mindful of the General Safety Precautions that follow this note. Good experimental procedure always includes carefully following basic safety rules. Things can happen very quickly while you are performing an experiment. Things can spill, break, even catch fire. There will be no time after the fact to protect yourself. Always prepare for unexpected dangers by following basic safety guidelines the entire time you are performing the experiment, whether or not something seems dangerous to you at a given moment. We assume you will read the safety precautions that follow, as well as the ones that appear with each activity and that you will remember them and follow the recommendations. You must use good judgment and pay attention when you are doing your experiment. If you have any questions about whether or not a procedure or material is dangerous, wait until you find out for sure that it is safe.
5 SAFETY Junior Environmental Activities On File TM Safe Science Procedures (continued) BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Read the entire experiment before you begin. Clear a workspace. Protect yourself: Follow the directions, step-by-step. Make sure you know where there is a first-aid kit and eyewash. Concentrate on what you are doing; do not roughhouse. Wear something to protect your clothes, like a smock or apron. Clean up spills immediately. Tie back your hair; do not wear loose clothing or open-toed shoes. Keep your workspace neat and dry. Do not eat or drink in your workspace. Do not light matches. Do not eat or drink any experimental substances without express permission from a responsible adult. Wear goggles or protective eyewear when working with sand, etc. USE EQUIPMENT WITH CARE Use caution when working with scissors, knives, or other sharp objects. Set up your experiments far away from the edge of your work surface as practicable. Use care when working with glass. Clean up broken glass immediately. Be careful when using stepstools, chairs, or ladders. GOING ON FIELD TRIPS Never go on a field trip by yourself; use the buddy system. Tell a responsible adult where you are going. Know where you are going and gather information about any danger, such as poisonous plants, that may be present there. Dress appropriately for the weather (rain, sun, etc.). Bring along a first aid kit. Never eat or drink anything you find in the wild. FINISHING UP Thoroughly clean your work area and equipment. Don t dispose of materials down the sink, unless you are told to do so by a responsible adult. Wash your hands.
