By the end of this activity I will be able to… MS LS 2-4 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations. Make a claim about whether our project impacted the abundance of the target species. Support my claim with visual evidence, written explanation, and quantitative data. Determine how sure I can be about my results and identify possible sources of variability or error. Suggest possible next steps that would lead to a more reliable investigation. MS LS 2-5 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Evaluate competing design solutions for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Make a claim about whether we met the goals of our project. Support my claim with visual evidence, written explanation, and quantitative data. Explain how our results show whether we met the criteria we defined for the project. Suggest possible next steps to improve the management project. Use the data from your pre-treatment and post-treatment observations to answer the questions below with your team. Did the abundance of the target species seem to change? How do you know? What is your evidence? Do your results that meet the goals of your management project? Explain your answer.
