  3. Isopod, a.k.a. rolly-polly, sowbug, pillbug, woodlice Isopod structures Isopod behavior SB4 f: Relate animal adaptations, including behaviors, to the ability to survive stressful environmental conditions. S7L1b: Classify organisms based on physical characteristics using a dichotomous key

  4. Isopod, a.k.a. rolly-polly, sowbug, pillbug, woodlice Sexing Isopods YIKES! Some isopod species are huge! Ocean Isopod Video-clip

  5. Model Habitat Features& Investigate Isopod Behavior Food Preference Preference for Wet or Dry Light or Dark Hill Challenge, on rough and smooth GPS Characteristics of Science --S7CS6 Students will communicate scientific ideas and activities clearly. Elements: a. Write clear, step-by-step instructions for conducting particular scientific investigations, operating a piece of equipment, or following a procedure.c. Organize scientific information using appropriate simple tables, charts, and graphs, and identify relationships they reveal.

Elements: a. Suggest reasonable hypotheses for identified problems.b. Develop procedures for solving scientific problems.c. Collect, organize and record appropriate data.d. Graphically compare and analyze data points and/or summary statistics.e. Develop reasonable conclusions based on data collected.f. Evaluate whether conclusions are reasonable by reviewing the process and checking against other available information.
