External Stimuli Lab

"The external stimuli lab was a fun and interesting project. For the lab we chose a stimuli and tested it against an animal like a roly poly. We found out how they react to different types of music. We learned a lot from the lab. For example when we were researching about the roly polies we found plenty of useful information that helped us with our experiments. One of the important pieces of information that we found said that roly polies have sensory organs that let them hear. On FlipGrid, we respond to the younger kids’ questions that have to do with external stimuli of animals."

"The external stimuli lab was a lab where we used insects to try to answer questions about external stimuli. We used Madascar Hissing Cockroaches to see how they would react to carrots and lettuce. They liked the carrots better. I thought this lab was interesting because it was my first lab that had a living thing in it. (The cockroach). We also used the lab to answer questions that kindergarteners asked about insects. ( like, why do bumblebees sting?) We collaborated and shared with them using an app called Flipgrid."
