Have you ever drawn like a scientist? Discover the art of science through this interactive, live animal experience. Students will observe, measure, and scientifically draw to scale a live minnow, beetle, and snail. Paying close attention to the unique features of different bird species, students will work as a group to match a bird's beak to its food to understand how physical adaptations help an animal survive.
