We all live in ecosystems and have an impact on how they work and the other species that are able to live in our shared. So what is an ecosystem? What kind of ecosystem and why are ecosystems important? Read on to see our ultimate ecosystem guide, including what an ecosystem is, why they’re important, and twelve different kinds of ecosystems found in the world.

Our most recent science unit is an exploration of ecosystems. We learned there are 4 parts to an ecosystem: animals, plants, decomposers, and non-living things. These bottles contain all four parts including water, soil, grass, fish, snails, gravel, worms, and a water plant. Our bottles have been self sustaining. For two weeks we haven't had to feed the animals or water the plants, and everything is still alive. Take a look:

Growing a self-sustaining plant ecosystem in the classroom is a fun and hands-on way to teach students about ecosystems as well as the water cycle. To complete this experiment you will need clear plastic 2 liter bottles, seeds or small plants, soil, water, scissors, and tape. #STEM #STEMChallenge

Discover creative plant STEM activities for kids to design and make simple models of water plant adaptations. Teaching ideas and hands-on activities for students learning about plant needs, habitats, and ecosystems in 2nd grade science.

Biome in a bottle, ecosystem in an envelope, habitat in a handbag…what on earth? This hands-on long term terrestrial and marine or freshwater biome research project will have student thinking about where they live – the organisms that surround them and the environment they live in. Dive in to get started on this interactive in-classroom habitat experiment! After the open or closed biome is created, students will collect data on how organisms interact with one another and monitor changes over…
