Bio 101 Lab Alternate Activities for the State Museum and Zoo Field Trips
Museum Alternate
1. You will need to reserve a computer classroom with Jean Pritchard (822-3291). The Academic Success Centers on BC and AC have rooms with 24 PC’s. They close at 8:00 p.m. but you can stay later and have security lock up after you. You can also reserve computer classrooms which have 18 PC’s (some would have to work in pairs). Those classrooms are locked by 9 p.m. I have included Jean’s instructions on these rooms for labs that go beyond 8 or 9 p.m.
2. The activity is based on the SC Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) website. The academic standards at the end of this activity are for 8th grade! Please explain to the students that while this information has been designed to meet the 8th grade standards, it closely matches the information the students would gain at the Museum (which caters to all ages).
3. Have the students go to:
- Click on Education on the top blue and green bar.
- Under the Earth Science Education Series list, have them click on the “Download pdf” for “Geologic Time and Earth’s Biological History”. This will open a 32 page document.
- Have the students answer the list of questions while using this program.
- I have attached the answers below.
Zoo Alternate
In place of the Zoo, the students can do a group research project on biomes.
1. You will need to reserve a computer classroom with Jean Pritchard (822-3291). The Academic Success Centers on BC and AC have rooms with 24 PC’s. They close at 8:00 p.m. but you can stay later and have security lock up after you. You can also reserve computer classrooms which have 18 PC’s (still fine if they work in groups). Those classrooms are locked by 9 p.m. I have included Jean’s instructions on these rooms for labs that go beyond 8 or 9 p.m.
2. The activity is titled “The Biome Project”. I will attach it in a pdf file. Students could work in groups of 2 or 3. Assign each group one of the following 8 biomes:
tropical rainforest, deciduous forest, taiga (coniferous forest), arid desert, arctic desert (tundra), temperate grasslands (prairie), savannah and shrublands (chaparral).
3. Students will spend the lab period in the computer classroom researching the information. They can then write up a report after class similar to the Zoo report on animal adaptations. You can grade them on their report and/or presentation. The grade you assign to the group will be the grade each student in that group gets.
Instructional Rooms after 8:00PM
The Success Centers staff will lock the doors at 8:00PM. If any of your students need to leave the center between 8:00PM and the time you dismiss the class, make sure that the doors are lock in the Success Center when they leave and return. On Airport Campus - AC 151, you may use the side door to AC 152, but please make sure it is locked when you are finished and on Beltline Campus – WM 110. We do not want students walking in the Success Center while you are in the Instructional Rooms after the center is closed.
It will be your responsibility to contact Security Dispatch on Beltline (738-7850) or Airport (738-7850) to lock the Success Center. Please remain at the center until security has locked the doors.
Thank you for your help.
