If you bring your classes to the Exploring Habitats field trip at Marin Art and Garden Center, the videos and lessons can augment pre and post field trip learning. For students who are home schooled, or whose schools cannot access the field trip, these videos and lesson may provide a learning experience akin to the field trip. In addition, second language learners and their parents can watch the videos as often as they want to gain deeper understanding of the habitats.  \nOur intention with the videos, vocabulary, and lesson ideas is to supplement and enrich teachers’ coverage of the California Science Standards for grade two and to teach foundational UC Marin Master Gardener Earth Friendly Gardening concepts. The EH teacher materials are designed to be engaging and accessible for all students. We are acutely aware of the many children in our schools who are second language learners, and believe our materials include ways to address ELA/Literacy. Of course, we fully expect that classroom teachers using these materials will adapt them as needed.  \nThe vocabulary words are listed in alphabetical order in each category, and some are listed more than once because they fall into more than one category. We encourage teachers who use this curriculum to give us feedback so that we can issue updates to make this a better tool.  \nThe following teacher resource materials ideas address the following California state science standards for second grade:  \n“Make observations (firsthand or from media) to collect data which can be used to make comparisons.”(2-LS4-1) Science and Engineering Practices  \n“There are many different kinds of living things in any area, and they exist in different places on land and in water.”(2-LS4-1) . Disciplinary Core Concepts  \nVocabulary  \nGeneral Vocabulary  \nAdaptation-The way a plant or animal looks or behaves that helps it to survive.  \nBacteria-microscopic living organisms.  \nCamouflage-An adaptation that allows plants or animals to blend in with their surroundings so that their chances of survival are increased.  \nCarnivore-Meat eater.  \nFungi -Parasites that feed on living organisms or dead organic material.  \nHabitat-A place where plants and animals can find the things they need to live.  \nHerbivore-Plant eater  \nMicroscopic-Something that is so small you need a microscope to be able to see it.  \nMicroorganisms-Organisms that are too small to be seen with our eyes and can only be seen through a microscope. Ex. bacteria, fungi.  \nOmnivore-Eats plants and animals.  \nOrganism-Any individual living thing that can react to stimuli, reproduce, and grow. It can be a virus, bacterium, protist, fungus, plant or an animal.  \nPollinator-Animals such as bees and some birds that move pollen from one plant to another Predator-Animals that hunt other animals for food.  \nPrey-Animals that are hunted and become food for other animals.  \nScavenger-An animal that eats dead animals. Ex. turkey vulture.  \nGarden Habitat Vocabulary  \nDecompose – To cause something (such as dead plants and the bodies of dead animals) to be slowly destroyed and broken down by natural processes, chemicals, etc.  \nPhotosynthesis-The process in which green plants use sunlight to make their own food.  \nHerbivore – Plant eater Carnivore-Meat eater  \nOmnivore-Eats plants and animals.  \nPollination – The transfer of pollen grains from one flower to another. Many insects move pollen between flowers. Pollination is important because it leads to the production of much of the food we and other animals eat and seeds that will create more plants.  \nPesticide: A poison that kills insects.  \nPond Habitat – Vocabulary Words  \nDecompose-To cause something (such as dead plants and the bodies of dead animals) to be slowly destroyed and broken down by natural processes, chemicals, etc.  \nHerbivore-An animal that o","cbCaisnFtNFmFjau","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisnFtNFmFjau","pdf",248377,"English","# Teacher Resource Materials\n## California State Science Standards (Grade 2)\n## Science and Engineering Practices\n## Disciplinary Core Concepts\n## Vocabulary\n### General Vocabulary\n### Garden Habitat Vocabulary\n### Pond Habitat Vocabulary\n### Woodland Understory Vocabulary\n### Soil/Compost Habitat Vocabulary","[{\"question\":\"How are the UC Marin EH videos intended to be used in the classroom?\",\"answer\":\"Use the videos to enrich learning before and after the Exploring Habitats field trip, or as an alternative for homeschoolers and classes that cannot attend.
