Objective: Today I will follow verbal directions and participate faithfully and collect data in the ecology activity. Warmup: New item in your notebook – next free page. Title – “Oh Deer.” Update your table of contents.

Announcements Spring research project due in two days. Dance of the Food Chain rehearsal after school next Tuesday. Endangered species elections this Friday – make a good selection.

Oh Deer Warmup: In your notebook, write down 3-4 sentences using as many of your vocabulary words as you can from the life webs unit. Make it entertaining but make it clear that you understand the meaning of the words.
