During my science methods class, I was given the opportunity to teach a lesson on camouflage to my peers. In order to do this, I created a newspaper poster with multiple moths posted on the paper. Many of the moths were brightly colored, while a few were cut out of newspaper, thus camouflaging into the newspaper background. My peers were asked to estimate how many moths were on the newspaper and guess how many different types, or colors, they saw; none of my peers were able to see the camouflaged moth. This example helped me explain camouflage and how many animals use camouflage to blend in with their environment, protecting them predators. Below is a picture of my peers working on their camouflage science lesson.
