Review your resource requirements and tick off the devices you will need as well as their availability. Add others, if necessary.
Organisms that break down dead or decaying organic material and waste for nutrients.
One example is mushrooms !
Consumers are all animals. They get their energy by eating/consuming food. There are different categories of consumers. Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores.
Consumers are all animals. They get their energy by eating/consuming food. There are different categories of consumers. Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores.
An example of a consumer is humans, or cows, sheep, wolves literally almost any animal you can think of ! (ecosystem for kids video)
Herbivores get their energy from exclusively eating plants.
Sheep, Deer and koalas, are all herbivores.
Carnivores get their energy from exclusively eating other animals
Lions, Wolves, and foxes are all carnivores.
An omnivore organism that gets energy/food from eating both plants and animals. Humans are an example of omnivores !
Producers are the living things that produce or make their own food. Without producers no animal would be able to survive.
One great obvious example is plants ! They produce their own food through photosynthesis.
An ecosystem is the living things that interact in a particular area as a system with both living and nonliving things. The living parts are the plants and animals and the nonliving parts are things like sunlight, temperature air and wind. The nonliving parts make the conditions that decide what can live in a particular place- (ecosystems for kids video)
Add other resources:

The living parts are the plants and animals.
Sustainability is meeting the current needs of people while keeping in mind future generations and if and when a resource will run out and how it affects the environment.
The three ps of sustainability are, People, Planet,Profit. For example when looking at resource extraction and taking into account how sustainable it is you must consider how it affects people (ie health), how it affects the planet (ie environmental impacts), and how it affects profit (ie jobs provided, money made, not lost).

Add key information about the books you've read. If you feel it's necessary, you can add a small summary of your readings in the Notes section.
A chemical process is a method of or means of somehow changing one or more chemical compounds.
Physical properties are specific characteristics that an element,compoun or an item exhibit either through their interaction with substances in the world OR what we know using our 5 senses of sight,hearing,taste,sound and touch.
Quantitative
An element is a pure substance made up of only one kind of atom.
A pure substance is a substance made of only one kind of matter and having definite properties.
Compound
A pure substance is a substance made from two or more elements.
The periodic table is a table displaying chemical elements arranged by atomic number, periods and groups.
The first ten elements on the periodic table are,
Alkaline Earth Metals
The elements in group 2A of the periodic table.
Alkali Metals
Any metal in group 1A of the periodic table (very reactive,electropositive,monovalent metals forming strongly alkaline hydroxides)
Representative Metals
Those elements with in the first two families.
Inner Transition Metals
Elements that appear below the main body of the periodic table.
Transition Metals
Groups 3-12 on the periodic table

Energy is the capacity for doing work.

A conductor is an object or a type of material that easily allows the movement of electrons. Conductors have degrees of ease when it comes to moving electrons. A conductor conducts heat and or electricity. A common example of conductors are metals such as copper,gold,steel and aluminum.
Conductivity is the ability of a substance to conduct electricity or heat.
A superconductor is a highly effective conductor ONLY at extremely cold temperatures. ie aluminum
A semiconductor is between a conductor and an insulator. They allow the movement of electrons with difficulty. Silicon and graphite are examples of semiconductors.
Fair conductors allow electrons to flow most common are solutions with ions and metalloids such as salt water, acids and the human body.
Good conductors have high electron flow,very fast transfers of electrons when charging or discharging.
Insulators inhibit the movement of electrons. They prevent the flow of electrons between objects. Insulators hold tightly to their electrons, unlike conductors. Some great examples of insulators are rubber,wood,plastic,air,and glass.
Insulators are also used as protection from electricity and electricity malfunctions. An example of this is the rubber coating on wires in a home to prevent a house fire.
Type in the name of your teachers and teacher assistants, plus any details you should know about them.
Electricity generation means what it says, producing electricity. There are many different ways we as humans produce energy, some may impact the environment negatively, some may be less costly to produce, and some are easier to produce. We use electricity for many things like heating,cooling,lighting, electronic devices such as televisions or microwaves, cooking, dishwashers and more ! Can you think of any other things we use electricity for ?
