You all have cameras (we've seen them in class...), and as a great excuse to use them and go wander outside, this weeks assignment will be to explore your neighbourhood.

You'll be tasked to do a walkabout and look for examples of where wildlife (plants or animals) and humans interact with each other. Take a photo if you can. This can be of anything as little as some ants wandering on a sidewalk to deer destroying your lawn (poor Mr. M). Remember, when you're out hunting you want to think about positive and negative impacts that humans may have on the local environment, or how the local critters impact humans. Look for both positive and negative ways (it can even be both at the same time).

TL;DR version - So, go walk, take pictures of nature, then think of how those things affect the world around them in good and bad ways.

Mr. Mancini saw a perfect example yesterday morning about Nature and humanity interacting and caught a short video of it (seen to the right).

Did you see something like that on your Walkabout?

Fill out the attached form in Google Classroom, you'll need to find at least three things to write about.

This week is a fairly simple task compared to last weeks. Your goal is to lift a paper plate using a cup.

You'll need the following materials:

• 1 paper plate.

• 1 tea candle.

• 1 mug or glass (this needs to be something that won't burn or melt!).

• Water.

• Matches or Lighter.

Using the above materials, try to find a way to lift the paper plate up off a table/counter. You cannot use ANY other materials than those listed above and the plate cannot be on top of the cup.
