Core Competency: _______Social Responsibility____________
For the wood bug lab I thought that I was very aware of my surroundings and helped out others in this lab. My group worked very well together, and when there was a disagreement we would compromise and solve it. In my group we mostly all contributed to supplying products for our experiments and we all came in during flex to set up. I thought that this project was very interesting ad fun in the way we got to pick our experiments and run them on our own. It was the first real lab I had ever done and it was really cool to see the wood bug’s different reactions to the temperatures of water. In the hot water, they almost had a seizure like movement when placed in the water. In the cold water, they tried getting out of the container and a few even managed to crawled out. And in the room temperature water they just sank to the bottom and crawled around.
Ways I want to improve are… Ways that we could improve next time, could be by bringing in wood bugs that are all the same age and size, so we aren’t putting babies in hot water and old wood bugs in cold water. Also, to have more bugs would’ve been easier to distribute instead of letting the five we had dry out in-between experiments.
