Students practice using dichotomous keys by classifying imaginary creatures by their unique traits, then they put their practice to use by designing their own organisms and creating a dichotomous key to be tested by another classmate.
STUDENTS WILL:
* Practice creating a key by dividing imaginary creatures by their visible traits.
* Demonstrate their understanding by creating their own creatures with various traits and key to identify them.
* Pass the key off to another student to test the key for a self-assessing lesson!
