THE ASSIGNMENT You will go on a scavenger hunt for

items in your world that demonstrate at least 15 of the vocabulary words from the list of terms provided.

You will include an item that represents YOU in each photo you take.(just wait, I have a sample included for you)

You will include a brief description of how the item you photographed defines the word you have connected to it.

EXAMPLE:

Autotroph: grass converts energy from the sun to make its own energy.

Coniferous tree: Cones are the reproductive containment units for eggs of conifers. Usually they are evergreens.

Seed dispersal: one form of spreading seeds is by use of wind.

POLLINATION: Flowering plant containing pollen must have some way to spread the pollen to another plant. This one is using a bee.
