DeleteJess and Elise, read the assignment again, it is asking you to read the article and then write a response answering
Delete1. Why is keeping an accurate and complete scientific journal important to you and future scientists.
2. Make a prediction of what will happen over time as winters become less cold and plants start budding and flowering earlier in the year. What other environmental and life forms will be affected by this?
good luck,
Mrs C
ohhhh I get I got confused cause I thought it meant the question was on the blog
Deleteso if plants continue to late bloom we won't get as much rainfall?
DeleteJess,
DeleteThink about the last few winters that were warmer and plants went into flower (bloom) early in the spring, if this continues to happen every year how will that affect other animals that depend on the plants?
Mrs C
Oh okay thank you
DeleteFor question number two do we have to read this website and is the answer on the website?
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie, yes you do have to read the website, it will give you some answers to question number one and some points to talk about for question number two.
DeleteGood luck,
Mrs C
Oh, in question one I wrote what I thought in my answer. But, thank you!
DeleteDo we need to do this or is it for extra credit?
ReplyDeleteMatthew, we need this, the 10 bonus points will go towards improving everyone's scores on the science quiz before the one that we had today, and it is a lead story for the next unit that we will begin after vacation.
DeleteGood luck,
Mrs C
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, ok I started doing it anyways but I just can't really find the answer for #2 in the article. Are we supposed to make hypothesis of what the plants will do if the winters get less cold and the plants bud earlier?
DeleteThank's!
Matthew, yes, you are making they hypothesis based on what you already know, or have heard from your parents or teachers. You can do this, I have faith in you!!
DeleteMrs C
Thank You Mrs. Collins!
