Jesse Morin october 13 3/3

What We Did Today:
  • We worked on snake hill on our field study project.
  • Then on the second class we worked on our field study project in the classroom.
  • We checked for bugs that may have been caught overnight in the bugs traps that were set up.
  • We measured temperatures.
  • Thank you for the hot chocolate.
My Thoughts:
  • The weather was bad for working on snake hill especially if you didn't dress well.
  • Collecting the bugs was kind of cool just to see bugs that you may have never seen before.
  • So far the project is going well, and hopefully we can do some more labs like this.
  • The hot chocolate was nice to have in second block because it was so cold outside.
Above and Beyond:
  • There are many spiders in alberta. One of the most common spiders in alberta is the wolf spider. They are most abundant betwen april and october. They are commonly found near lakes, rivers and forests. There are several kinds of wolf spiders usually ranging in colour from brown to black and can have deep blue markings. They can also grow to 2 inches in length.
  • other spiders such as the ground spider and the grass spider are prominent in the fall months.

  1. Good. Please reference the source of material provided (e.g. info about spiders). Your "thoughts about the MATERIAL" isn't what I'm looking for. Please review the requirements (first posting, or course outline).
    3/3 for now, but needs improvement for next time.
