Inquiry

"A living thing consumes, grows, breathes, adapts to its environment and perishes"
                                                                                     A quote from room 8, 2015


•  I did my project on turtles because I have 2 pet turtles called Trevor and myrtle.
• I got all of my information from books because I wanted to have a challenge not just copying and pasting. 
• A book called 'Turtles and their Lifecycle' helped me the most because I got so many answers for my questions from it.
• I learned that some Turtles aren't born on a beach because the live 24-7 in water
• My favorite fact is that some Turtles aren't born on a beach because I never knew that.
Next time I would get more information to go on my project.
