A Detailed Lesson Plan in Science in Grade IV

The document outlines a lesson plan about interactions among organisms for a 4th grade science class. The lesson plan aims to teach students to (1) identify the five types of interactions - mutualism, commensalism, predation, parasitism, and competition; (2) enumerate the five interactions; and (3) describe the importance of interactions among organisms. The plan includes teacher activities such as presenting examples of each interaction type, playing educational videos, and having students solve puzzles in groups to reinforce the concepts.

about Interactions of Organisms.

SYMBIOSIS- interaction between two


different organisms living in close physical
association, typically to the advantage of both
organisms. There are five types of
Symbiosis: Mutualism, Parasitism,
Competition and Predation.

Mutualism- a relationship between two


species of organisms in which both benefit
from the association.
Commensalism- is an association
between two organisms in which one
benefits and the other derives neither
benefit nor harm.

Predation- is a type interaction where one


organism, the predator, kills and eats
another organism, its prey. 

Parasitism- is a type of interaction


between species, where one organism,
the parasite, lives on or inside another
organism, the host, causing it some harm,
and is adapted structurally to this way of
life.

Competition - Competition occurs
