Biodiversity Video Guide for 3rd Grade
A front-and-back viewing worksheet for a documentary on biodiversity, written at a simple 3rd-grade reading level for students with learning disabilities. Students watch in timed parts, answering multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions with a word bank to build vocabulary and close attention to the video.
“I need a worksheet (front and back) that will keep students engaged in this documentary. The students have about a 3rd grade reading level, have learning disabilities, and will need the questions and answers to be simple enough to do on their own as they watch the documentary. Time stamps for sections of questions could be helpful.”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as a guided viewing sheet during the documentary, pausing at each timestamp (for example, 0:00–5:00 for Part 1) so students can answer before moving on.
- Discussion question: Why do you think it is important for many different kinds of plants and animals to live together in one place?
- Scaffold: Read each question aloud, point to the Word Helper and Word Bank, and let students circle a choice before writing the answer.
- Extension: Have advanced students name one animal or plant from the video and explain how it fits into its habitat's biodiversity.
- Estimated time: about 20 to 30 minutes of viewing plus 5 minutes for a quick review of answers.
