Introductory Video NV Bighorn Sheep Lesson

Students work individually, in small research teams, and as a class to answer real-world questions using scientific data collected on wild bighorn sheep in Nevada. After watching the introductory video, students are grouped into six research teams and each team is assigned data from, and a case study about one Nevada bighorn sheep herd. Individually, students use real-world data to calculate missing information from a table with annual population estimates, and then they graph the data. Working collaboratively as a team, students interpret the graphs and analyze the results, answer questions from their Student Pages, create a presentation about their case study, and present findings to their peers. Includes an introductory video lesson and a Post Results PowerPoint.
