Investigate - Baby Animals - Episode 201

what's updo it, get to ittake it outside!

Which animals grow the fastest?
matt and kyndal with baby pig. We're Matt and Kyndal. Whether they have fur or feathers, we love animals. When we went to the zoo in the springtime with our friend Danny, we noticed a lot of newborn animals. We knew they wouldn't stay small for long and were curious about which animal grows the fastest. For our DragonflyTV investigation, we tracked the growth of a chicken, a pig and a cow. Which do you think grew the fastest?

How would you investigate this question?
Decide what you're going to measure and how often you'll measure it. What does it mean to "grow faster?" How would you display your results? Describe your investigation in your notebook and discuss it with your teacher, or go to Baby Animals to learn what Matt, Kyndal and Danny discovered.
