Write down 10-12 student generated questions then discuss what makes a questions appropriate/feasible for a a laboratory investigation (the mealworm is not hurt, we get some useful information from our research, we have the laboratory equipment, etc.). Below are student questions that experiments can be designed from:

This is a unit on Animal Behavior which is designed for a general Biology II class, but can be used with Biology I classes quite easily. ... In classroom cooperative groups, they design experiments on mealworm behavior, critique and modify them, and then carry them out. ... What kind of observations or experiments were done?
