Students
will
be
introduced
to
different
species
of
macroinvertebrates.
They
will
hypothesize
why
each
insect
looks
the
way
it
does.
Then
students
will
make
observations
of
macroinvertebrates
in
an
aquarium
in
their
classroom.
For
an
optional
extension,
teachers
can
take
students
to
a
local
stream
or
pond
to
conduct
field
observations.
The

find
in
a
sample
of
soil.
They

investigate
the
sample
and
sort
out
the

observing
one
or
more
sites
to

In
pairs,
students
will
create

conditions
in
terrariums
in
order

study
what
plants
need
to
live.
Variables
to
study
include
the
presence
or
absence
of
soil,
water,
and
sunlight.
Students
will

One
of
the

system
science
is
the
notion
of
interaction
among
parts
of

The
GLOBE
Cave
Protocol
Field
Guide
utilizes
existing
GLOBE
protocols
to
explore
an
extreme
environment.
Caves
provide
an
opportunity
to
utilize
GLOBE
protocols
to
investigate
underground
environments
and
compare
them
to
surface
environments.
Outside
the
cave,
students
record
elevation,
MUC,
latitude
and
longitude,
air
temperature,
relative
humidity
and
air
pressure.
Inside

The
purpose
of
this
resource
is
to
understand
that
physical
factors
-
temperature
and
precipitation
-
limit
the
growth
of
vegetative
ecosystems.
Students
observe
and
record
seasonal
changes
in
their
local
study
site.
They
establish
that
these
phenomena
follow
annual
cycles
and
conclude
the
activity
by
creating
displays
that
illustrate
the
repeating
pattern
associated
with
the
appearance
and
