Classification of Living Things Web Quest

Today and tomorrow, you will visit the website Classification Challenge to complete a living things web quest. Your directions on your handout vary a little from the directions on the site SO BE SURE YOU READ CAREFULLY AND DO WHAT I AM REQUIRING! You will travel through the site as a biologist.

Your task is to assist Professor Plananimingi with your team of biologists in training (the members of your station.) Each member will specialize in different areas. You will have to research and classify 6 different living things and then you will use the characteristics of each group to create you own imaginary living thing. (See your handouts for step by step directions.) REMEMBER! READ CAREFULLY AND WORK COOPERATIVELY. If you and your fellow biologist cannot work harmoniously, you will be given an alternative assignment! Good Luck!
