Ecology Population Growth Graph Analysis Activity

Upper middle school and high school science students will create a line graph based on a source data table showing the population of a field mouse over 18 years. They will glean timeline events ranging from an introduction of a predator to a prairie burn from an introductory paragraph to help answer why the mouse population increased or decreased for a particular year.

This four-page lesson includes conclusion questions and a complete key in color. It has a built-in grid for graphing. This PDF file will be editable once converted to Microsoft Word using Adobe Acrobat.
