Heeeere Banana!

Students conduct this simple investigation with familiar materials to get in the groove of looking carefully for something, making a claim that they found it or did not find it, and supporting that claim with solid, bullet proof evidence. Students plan and carry out a short, sweet investigation to determine whether or not a “species" is in an “ecosystem" or not. They figure out for themselves the importance of careful observations skills.
