Classify communities
High school students classify communities — groups of interacting species sharing a habitat — within an Ecology unit, developing the precision to distinguish community types and describe the relationships that define them. Teachers can use this worksheet to help students apply ecology vocabulary in structured classification tasks, connecting community concepts to broader ecosystem dynamics. It works well as a pre-assessment, review, or discussion scaffold in Grade 9–12 environmental science or biology.
