Have you ever thought about how to power a person? We don't plug ourselves into an outlet on the wall, rather we get our energy from the food that we eat. This field trip focuses on the questions surrounding how energy is transferred throughout an ecosystem, how ecologists classify living things, and how living and non-living things interact. The field trip follows a three-touch model, where students complete activities in the classroom before and after a field trip to Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.
