Reflection:
In this project I learned all about how different climates affect what animals and plants look like and do. I paired up adaptations with climates on different planets, and created aliens! I learned about the different climates of three different planets from three different "groups", which are gas planets, hot planets, and earth-like planets. Jupiter was my gas planet, so the alien that lived there ad to float or fly, because there was no surface for it to walk on. The hot planet was Mercury. That alien had thick, dark skin to protect it from getting sunburnt. The earth-like planet was Mars. He looked like a puppy!
The funnest thing about this project was drawing the aliens and making my booklet. I labeled the drawings, then cut the alien part out and but the labels in the description of the alien. Crassintudine Deglubeantur ( meaning "thick skinned" in Latin ) was my favorite to draw because it was big and blobby, and had a lot of cool features. I had to look at pictures of terriers and great danes for inspiration on the Mars alien, Canis Pulverm. The Leglessan Rixantes from Jupiter was a really fun and creative, considering it looks like a flying turtle!
It was difficult finding exact numbers and statistics for the size of the aliens. I was also unsure if these were the right aliens for the job. It was also kind of hard drawing and labeling all of the different aliens, though it was really fun. This was one of my most successful passion projects, and I'm really exited, but I had to work hard to get it done. Even writing this reflection is super hard, but if you work hard, you get it done well! This was a hard project, but a fun one too!
Overall this was an exciting project that I can't wait to show my family and friends!
