Creature Features
In this activity, students observe an image of an unknown organism. Students identify what the organism might be and annotate a diagram to communicate ideas about the organism. Following this, Year 5 students examine the features of the organism to make and record inferences about its habitat, movement, diet and predators. Meanwhile, Year 8 students analyse a cell sample taken from the organism and use the cell sample to draw conclusions about the organism.
