Based on these and other findings, scientists have determined that wildfires are a natural phenomenon and help to maintain healthy ecosystems by creating nutrient-rich soils, opening forest canopies, and clearing out invasive species (e.g. , weeds, insects, and diseases) . In this way, wildfires provide an opportunity for fire-adapted vegetation to regenerate in a nutrient-rich, sunny environment. Scientists studying patterns of recovery across fire-affected landscapes have identified a series of steps by which life comes back after wildfires and other disturbances, a process called secondary succession.  \nLesson Overview  \nIn this lesson, students create a storyboard and play a modified game of Rock-Paper-Scissors to communicate the process of secondary succession.  \n● Part 1 –(15 minutes) Wildfires Occur Naturally  \nStudents are introduced to the ecological benefits of wildfires through a Google Slides presentation and discussion.  \n● Part 2 –(20 minutes) From Fire Comes Life  \nStudents create a storyboard to explain the process of secondary succession.  \n● Part 3 –(15 minutes) Succession Game: Rock-Paper-Scissors  \nStudents play a modified game of rock-paper-scissors to reinforce the process of secondary succession.  \n● Part 4 –(10 minutes) Update Summary Table  \nStudents reflect on what they learned from the lesson and how it relates to the unit driving question.  \nThis project is funded by NASA, award number 80NSSC1K0126 .  \n1  \n| Instructional Overview |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Grade Level | Middle/ High School |\n| Instructional Time | 60 minutes (total time needed) |\n| Unit Driving Question | How do landscapes recover after a wildfire? |\n| Lesson Driving Question | How do wildfires affect landscapes? |\n| Building Toward | Middle School: MS-LS2-4 , MS-ESS3-3\u003Cbr>High School: HS-LS2-7 |\n| Three Dimensions | Science and Engineering Practices:\u003Cbr>● Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information\u003Cbr>Disciplinary Core Ideas:\u003Cbr>Middle School:\u003Cbr>● LS2 .C: Ecosystem Dynamics, Functioning, and Resilience\u003Cbr>● ESS3.C: Human Impacts on Earth Systems High School:\u003Cbr>● LS2 .C Ecosystems Dynamics, Functioning, and Resilience\u003Cbr>Crosscutting Concepts:\u003Cbr>● Stability and Change |\n| What Students Will Do | ● Communicate the process by which landscapes change (secondary succession) after a disturbance. |\n| Materials | ❏ From Fires Comes Life PPT\u003Cbr>❏ From Fire Comes Life Student Worksheet ( 1 per student)\u003Cbr>❏ Answer Key\u003Cbr>❏ Video: Why natural wildfires are necessary ❏ Computer/ Ipad ( 1 per student pair)\u003Cbr>❏ Initial Ideas Public Record ❏ Summary Table\u003Cbr>Optional\u003Cbr>❏ BiomanBio Succession Game |\n| Material Preparation | ❏ Cue and test web links\u003Cbr>❏ Print student worksheets\u003Cbr>❏ Review speaker notes in the From Fires Comes Life PPT ❏ Review Answer Key\u003Cbr>❏ Display summary table and initial ideas public record |\n\n2  \n| Vocabulary | Serotinous Cones-cones that only open and release seeds only when afire sweeps through and melts the resin (adhesive) keeping the cone closed.\u003Cbr>Secondary Succession-Series of steps by which life comes back after a disturbance (e.g. , fire, tornado, volcanic eruption, flood, etc. )\u003Cbr>Pioneer Species-First living things (plant or animal) to return following a disturbance (e.g. , grasses, flowers)\u003Cbr>Intermediate Species-Living things that may take years to return following a disturbance (e.g. , shrubs, fast growing pines)\u003Cbr>Climax Community-Stable group of plants and animals that is the end result of the succession process |\n| --- | --- |\n\nPart 1-Wildfires Occur Naturally ( 15 minutes)  \nRefer to Part 1 slides including in the From Fire Comes Life PPT.
