For your Sample Work assignment, you will write a reflection about your learning in this unit. Your reflections should be 3-5 sentences long and you need to use the sentence starts given on page 1 of this lesson. Sentence starters: I feel confident about creating classification models because… It is challenging to interpret molecular data because… One way to explain a scientific name is by… In order to remember definitions of vocabulary words in this unit, one strategy I used was… If I am not sure how to figure out how to support a claim, one strategy I can use is…
I feel confident about creating classification models because I have practiced using different algorithms and techniques in this unit. It has helped me understand the process better and feel more equipped to apply it in real-world scenarios.
for science classification
I feel confident about creating classification models for science because I have learned the importance of organizing and categorizing information to make sense of complex data. By understanding the principles of taxonomy and classification, I am better equipped to analyze and interpret scientific information effectively.
add this things to it Develop a model that categorizes organisms based on common characteristics. Explain how an organism’s scientific name correlates to the shared characteristics of taxonomic levels. Describe the similarities and differences of major physical characteristics in plants, animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria. Develop and use models to classify organisms based on the current hierarchical taxonomic structure (including the kingdoms of protists, plants, fungi, and animals). Analyze and interpret data related to the diversity of animals to support claims that all animals (vertebrates and invertebrates) share common characteristics.
I feel confident about creating classification models for science because I have learned the importance of organizing and categorizing information to make sense of complex data. By developing a model that categorizes organisms based on common characteristics, I am able to understand how an organism's scientific name correlates to the shared characteristics of taxonomic levels. Additionally, by analyzing and interpreting data related to the diversity of animals, I can support claims that all animals share common characteristics, despite the differences in major physical characteristics among different groups such as plants, animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria. This process has allowed me to develop and use models to classify organisms based on the hierarchical taxonomic structure and has increased my understanding of the interconnectedness of all living organisms.
