Life Science: Kingdoms

     This week in class we read about life science in our books and then completed a project in class which focused on the Five Kingdoms of life. After breaking into groups, each member was assigned one of the five (six) kingdoms to research, create a power point and then teach a lesson to our colleagues. This power point would be created with members from other groups who chose to research the same topic. My Kingdom to research was  Monera which is broken into two smaller groups Eubacteria and Archaebacteria. Cassandra and I were the only members of our group but she was very knowledgeable on the topic. 

     Cassandra and I researched the topic and stumbled across a Venn Diagram that was created by another student on Prezi. I find that other students projects are often and knowledge are useful in aiding my own learning. We used the Venn Diagram to help with filling information in our Power Point slides. It was also used as our review of the information. Along with using the Prezi information, we also incorporated images from a Google Image search. Our information was also researched on such sites as www.differencebetween.net/science. By reaserching our topic, it would be easier to present information on the topic. We also made sure to know the pronunciations of the vocabulary featured in our slides. A Kahoot was also created as a review of our Power Point. One thing I learned is to vary the type of questions when creating the Kahoot. By varying the types of questions, it would allow a more open-ended type of questioning.
