Students observe classroom animals, gaining immediate knowledge of the essential life science concepts of habitat and environment. Using a sampling and mapping system, students quantify and compare the movements of hamsters and crickets. Activities include planning and conducting experiments, such as graphing changes in movement patterns when food and shelter are added to the environment.
