This week in science #6

      This week in science we continued our investigation based on cricket's behaviors. But we took it even farther when we made questions based on whether they would prefer a wet or dry environment. After that we recorded our observations using method 1. This method allowed us to view the crickets in a way that was clear and understanding. Wherever the crickets traveled in the bin whether it was in the wet region or dry region we made a dot to represent which environment they preferred. Later in the week we used another method to classify jellybeans called the dichotomous key method. It was an exciting project but at times became frustrating.

      This week in science I learned about other ways to observe and record my findings about animal behaviors. I also learned a method to classify animal characteristics in the future in which it will be needed in the future.
