(Performance Task) Waters Importance to a Habitat’s Healthy Life Footprint -By Byers

In this performance task, students will use LabQuest Probes to measure the temperature and oxygen level of three different water habitats. Students will then, write down any observations and make a drawing of each different water habitat. Students will also create a graph using data collected from the various water sites. Finally, students will discuss their findings and draw conclusions about the importance of water to ecosystems.

Note: Prior to this lesson, students should know how to create a graph, compare data between habitats, write observations, draw on-site, use LabQuest probes, and how to manage a scientific journal.
