Today is THE DAY to finish setting up your ecosystems (all three levels), and your system of observation-taking. First of all, WHERE are you going to keep it where it will be remembered, where it will get indirect light but not in the direct sunlight, and where it will NOT get knocked over? And WHEN will you make your daily observations? WHAT is it that you will be looking for? This is what you will write a comment on below.
However, that is not enough. Now is the time to read your Handouts and begin to fill in the first pages. Set aside a good portion of time today to do so, so that we can get off on the right foot.
PRINT THIS OUT NOW - THE DIRECTIONS ARE HERE:

THIS IS OUR STARTING POINT, SO GET THIS READ AND DONE RIGHT AWAY. I think you should find a folder to put all your papers in for this project, as it will last for 4-6 weeks.
ALSO: Now is a good time to take a photo. (Part of the assignment, not a suggestion. :)
my big fish died.:( waaa waaa boohoo boohhhoo
ReplyDeletesome of mine died in the heat yesterday too.
ReplyDeleteAll four of our fish are dead and have slowly risen to the top of the aquatic level, but all the snails and the slug are still alive and are crawling across the sides of the soda bottles.
ReplyDeleteMy fish are all alive and well, as are my slugs. And shockingly, my delicate orange flowers remain upright. Aquatic chamber temp; 32degrees celsius. Sorry about your fishies. Good thing you have a tuna bass lil bro.
ReplyDeleteI will be checking it before i go to bed. It is kept in the dining room, a coolish safe place not in the direct sunlight and where i will remember it. I will be looking for dead things such as flowers and fish. As well as plant growth.
