Can a species come back from EXTINCTION?

What does it mean when a species goes extinct? Are they truly gone forever?

Today we will take a closer look at endangered and extinct animals and what their survival (or extinction) means to the sustainability of the Earth's deeply diverse ecosystems.

We will begin by watching a Brain Pop video where Tim and Moby learn more about the causes of extinction. Next, we will do the quiz together to show your understanding.  Finally, there are two activities you can do in small groups to record your understanding. You may need to watch the video again so you can be sure to pick up all of the important information.
