This lesson was designed to introduce students to population growth modeling. Typically, this lesson could take two 50 min class periods. The Smartnotebook file can be used to guide students throughout both parts of the lesson. Part one of the lesson is called "Way Out Wolves" and teaches students to model exponential and linear growth. Part two of the lesson is called "Predator-Prey Interactions" and adds the concept of carrying capacity and logistic growth. These five files are part of the lesson: All five files can also be downloaded as one zip file:

A primary goal of these two lessons is to introduce students to the ideas behind these two processes. In most cases, I would follow up with hands on labs and/or activities to further the development of these two processes. I would also assign textbook readings to complement the lessons we were doing in class.
