Activity cont. Now that you have completed that part of the activity lets do something a little different. Pick two animals at random and put the rest in the bag. Now with these two animals write down all of the differences and similarities.	 Also compare where these two animals live and what they eat.
Activity Cont. The last thing you will do is compare what you have come up with, with the other members of your group. Write down all of the different ways that your group as  whole came up with to classify the animals.
