2.  We are researching an existing creature to figure out how it’s physical characteristics help it survive in it’s environment.

3.  The name of our new organism needs to be “Latin-sounding”

4.Similar to last project, we need to draw our new creature.

5. We need to include the biome of our creature in our drawing.

6.  We need to have both of our creatures experience a “catastrophic” change, and write an essay explaining which one survived and why.

7.  Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species over 150 years ago.

8. We are working in partners.

9. 

2. We will illustrate a picture of our creatures (include color and details)

3. We will combine the physical characteristics of the organisms 

4. The original and modified creatures will suffer a catastrophic environmental change

5. We will make an individual essay

6. The name of our modified organism must be "Latin-Sounding"

7. We must note if the environmental change was harmful, helpful, or neutral 

8. Charles Darwin's Evolution, genetic engineering, and ecology theory is what sparked the idea for this project/what it's based on

9. We will research about how its physical characteristics help it survive in the environment it's located in

10. We are going to be focusing on evolution 

2. I know that we have to research about an animal.

3. I know that we will be working in partners/groups.

4. I know that we will have to draw the animal.

5.I know that we have to include all of the animals phenotypical traits.

6.I know that i will have to explain what will happen to the evolved animal in a catastrophic disaster.

7.I know that I have to tell if the evolution was beneficial, neutral, or harmful.

8. I know this project is based on Charles Darwin’s work about Evolution, Ecology, and Genetic Engineering.

9. We will be combining genetics of other creatures and give it a latin-sounding name.

10. We have to research an existing creature.

11. We must state how an environmental change can change the population 

tremendously. 

12. I know we will be sending this to the ACMS Library.

13. We have to research a biome.

14. We have to create a drawing to show the environmental change, the picture must be colored and detailed.

 

2. I need to know what type of evolutions can happen.

3. I need to know what evolutions can cause beneficial, harmful, or neutral changes.

4. I need to know when this project is due.

5. I need to know what animals we can choose from.

6. I need to know what are some sites that we can use.

7. Is the essay a group or independent assignment.

8. I need to know what a dichotomous key is

9. I need to know how we will be combining genetics of other creatures.

10. I need to know what creatures we can research.

11. What must be in our “exhibit”

12. What biomes can we research?

13. How do we complete our drawing? Will there be any stencils?

14. What will the “experimental genetics lab” consist of?

2.Do the creatures that we individually pick need to be still alive today, or can they be already extinct (for example, dinosaurs)?

3.How will we format our document for the culminating event?

4.Will we be presenting our finished products to or inside the ACMS Library?

5.Do we need to create a presentation about our creatures? If not, will we be creating a presentation at all for this project?

6.Will we be learning a little bit of Latin to create the name for our organism?
7. What is the name of the genetics lab we’re gonna be working with?

8. What is this technique they will be using to combine our species

9. Can we pick ANY existing creature?

10. Do both partners get a creature or are we all working on the same creature.

11. What are other requirements for our drawings, size etc

12. Will we be dissecting any creatures?

13. Are we provided a list of species?

14.

2.We have to draw our species

3.Both partners will combine their species to create one 

4.our species needs a latin-sounding name.

5.We will put our species through a catastrophic event

6.We need to document how the event will affect our species,food, weather etc.

7.classify our species using A dichotomous key

8. We will be conducting this project to celebrate and acknowledge the work of Charles Darwin, and the anniversary of his death.

9.We need to appeal to the imagination of children, students, and adults to educate them about genetic engineering, evolution, and the influence of geographical and ecological factors.

10.Each of us will choose an animal to research about for this project.

11.We will need to ask the genetics lab to combine some of the physical traits from both of our creatures.

12.We will be creating a Latin-sounding name for our combined organism.

13.We will be classifying our peers’ new creatures by creating a taxonomic scheme, or dichotomous key.

`14For the culminating event, we will document how a change in the environment benefits or hurts our new creatures and original creature.

2. What is a dichotomous key also, how is it based on an appearance of the organisms?

3. What does catastrophic mean also, what is a  catastrophic environmental change?

4. What are the types of creatures are we going to get? (Sea creatures, reptiles, etc.)

5. When is the tribute for Charles Darwin and also, what is it going to contain? (Books / stories, biography, etc.)

6. Besides of drawing our creature, can we print or draw it digitally?

7. Will we present our final result? (Drawings, Information, etc.)
8. Will we be provided with websites for use?
9. Will the genetics lab show us how to splice?
10. How long do we have for us to research?

2. What are the requirements for creating a Latin-sounding name?

3. What is the genus?

4. How do we create a dichotomous key?

5. What is the species classification?

6. How will we combine phenotypic traits?

7. What will the catastrophic change be like?

8. Will we learn more about Charles Darwin?
9. Will our culminating events be displayed in the ACMS Library?
10. What biomes are available for our organisms?
