MS-LS1-4. 	Use argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support an explanation for how characteristic animal behaviors and specialized plant structures affect the probability of successful reproduction of animals and plants respectively.
MS-LS1-5. 	Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how environmental and genetic factors influence the growth of organisms.
MS-LS2-1.	Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem. 
MS-LS2-1.	Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem. 
MS-LS2-4.	Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations.
MS-LS2-5.	Evaluate competing design solutions for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services.
MS-LS4-2. 	Apply scientific ideas to construct an explanation for the anatomical similarities and differences among modern organisms and between modern and fossil organisms to infer evolutionary relationships.
I have ten years of teaching experience. My Masters degree is in Animal Science with research in aquaculture. I also have a Bachelor's in Animal Science with minors in Chemistry and Fish & Wildlife.

Class 1 Workbook (provided before the course) Class 2 Workbook (provided before the course) 4 Small milk cartons Scissors Cardboard (a small box-worth would be plenty) Ruler Tape (i like using a heavy duty tape like duct tape) Scrap piece of paper and pen or pencil Rag or paper towels Marbles (20 to 30) Calculator Bucket, tub, sink, or dishpan Water Class 3 Workbook (provided before the course) Small glass bottle Balloon that fits inside the bottle Plastic tubing (at least 30 cm or 12 inches of aquarium plastic tubing) Big tub or container, waterproof. It should have enough room so the glass bottle can float in it freely. Strong and waterproof tape Water Towels Two plastic bottles of the same size Funnel Dish soap Vegetable oil Class 4 Workbook (provided before the course) Larger bucket/container Smaller container Blindfold "fishing net" (provide an assortment, such as cups, mesh bags, sandwich bags or aquarium fishing nets) An assortment of many marbles and other balls of different colors and sizes, placed in a bowl to prevent them from rolling around; cheaper materials can be used, such as rocks; while numbers/colors/types of balls (fish) are flexible, here is an example assortment: 5 large red rubber balls (like the type for playing jacks), 10 glass marbles of color A, 10 glass marbles of color B, 3 golf balls, 4 pairs of dice, 10 very small pebbles (much smaller than the marbles) Water Paper and pencils, for recording data
When using scissors, learners may need assistance (parents will know best for their abilities)
For the final class, the learner will need to be blindfolded and it would be helpful to have another person present to help with the experiment.
