species/earthday2019/
Read the Informational
Text
• https://faunalytics.org/law
s-are-not-enough-to-
protect-endangered-sea-
turtles/
• Why are turtles at risk
even though there are
laws to protect them?
Learn More About Threats to Sea Turtles
• https://www.seeturtles
.org/sea-turtles-threats
• Discuss how each of
these threats are man-
made.
• Scroll down to find out
the extent to which
seven sea turtles are
at-risk (The
explanation of the
scale is below the list
of turtles. In a later
link a chart that is kid-
friendly will supply this
information for each
sea turtle).
Watch the video
• https://www.youtube.com/
watch?v=w82xpBR_Z4A
• What could happen to keep
these babies from making it
to the water? What
dangers are in the
environment (predators,
people, trash on the beach,
light that confuses the
turtles, etc.)?
• What is the problem?
• What is NOAA asking
you to do?
Introduce the
problem point
Research
alternatives.
Research Each Turtle
• https://www.worldwildlife.org/pages/inf
ographic-sea-turtl
• View the chart with students. Discuss
the categories of being at-risk from least
to most (vulnerable, endangered,
critically endangered). Refer back to the
website that explained what the category
‘data deficient’ means.
• Model reading the chart on Green Sea
Turtles. To what extent are these turtles
at-risk (endangered)? Model entering
this information into the matrix.
• Continue reading the chart and
discussing each of the other three types
of turtles.
Research Using the NOAA site
• Use the following link to go to the NOAA website:
https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/sea-turtles
• Click on the links for each of the four sea turtles.
Each article provides information related
predators, life span, and why are they at-risk.
Gather relevant information and write it on the
matrix. (These articles can be downloaded as PDFs
to allow students to annotate the texts)
Rank the alternatives.
Guiding/reflective Questions
• Which turtle would be the best choice for support?
• Why do you think that?
• What of the criteria is the most important to you?
• Which animal would be your next choice? And after that?
• Do you agree with your group's ideas? Why or why not?
Write back to The Lorax and NOAA
Extend the learning.
• Create a presentation for NOAA that outlines why a particular sea
turtle should be further supported.
• Read more about endangered species at ReadWorks:

Editor's Notes

  1. After analysis, explain to students that this image is of a lake’s ecosystem. Ecosystems are areas where living and nonliving things live together in balance.
