Our Environment
Some of the bugs that we found in our square were small
black ants, may flies, black flies, mosquitoes, an earthworm, a
deer tick, a bush cricket, a grasshopper, a fire ant, jumping
spider and a caterpillar.
Some of the plants that we found were wintergreen
berries, seedlings, Indian moss, fern, hair-cap moss, little
white flowers, and an Eastern Pine tree.
Here are some non-living things that we found. We found
rocks, dirt, glass, Eater White pine needles, a conifer pine
cone, a white pine cones, some maple leaves, oak leaves, deer
scat, log, dead fern, dead grass, and a long leaf pinecone!!!

We Infer…
We infer that with the data that
the other school collected
compared to the data that we
collected, that they chose to put
their square in an area that was
like ours; near the edge of the
woods in the forest. I infer this
because there was only 3
differences in the data we found.
Reasons For What we Found
One reason that our data could be different is the seasons
changing.
When Winter comes, we would not have ants, flying bugs,
spiders, worms, and grass because there would snow on
the ground and it would be too cold for the living things.
We would not have seen dirt and small rocks because there
is snow on the ground. We might have found the mud if the
snow from that year had been light and had melted quickly.
So we conclude that the seasons effect our environment.
Conclusion
 Based on our data, we can conclude that our
environment is a good spot for plants and animals. The
plants can grow freely, the trees grow tall, and the
animals have the resources that they need to find food,
water, and find shelter. That is why we know that we
have a good, healthy, environment.
