Ms. Ayres’ Biology class did an activity on Ecology and used common household items (tweezers, clothes pin, spoons, and hair clips) as “beaks” to show the different kinds of species. They used their “beaks” to pick as much food off the ground as they could in 30 seconds. The class gathered data to show what “”beak” worked the best.
