Unit 3, Lesson 12: Page 1 (definitions), Page 2 (watch the video),

Be sure to type the names of the two organisms in the appropriate boxes.
Each bean color represents a type of food source. You MUST have 20 of each color! You will set your timer for 1 minute.
1 minute represents the length of the season
During the 1 minute season, you will use your tool (representing your first organism) to pick up as many beans as possible.
At the end of the season, sort your beans and type the number of the bean color in the appropriate box for that season. For example, during Season 1, organism 1 was able to gather 3 black beans, 4, pink beans, and 5 white beans.

Repeat this process for the second organism for Season 1; and then start over and repeat the process again for both organisms for Season 2.
At the end of 4 minutes you should have all 6 boxes filled out, in addition to the names of your two organisms.
