Hello there Period 8! Rachie here :) Today was a very successful day full of note-taking, learning about how to read climatograms, and checking up on our duckweed. Note-taking consisted of Ecological Succession and Biomes. Ecological Succession is basically predictable changes that occur in a community over time. It usually occurs in ponds, lakes, and forest. There is Primary and Secondary Succession, and they are both very different from one another. Primary Succession occurs where NO SOIL exist (early plants prepare the soil). Secondary Succession follows community destruction without destroying the soil.
We learned that Temperature + Precipitation = CLIMATE. You could look at a climatogram and see their relationships in a biome. We, the class, also learned that temperate means not extreme.
For the last 15 minutes of class we got to work on climatograms and check up on our duckweed. Everyone realized their hasn't been much growth in them. Most groups control group died. But that doesn't stop us to continue this experiment! It's new to us and Mrs. Stein. We're learning more and more in her class everyday.
