Unicorn Fly Discovered

About 100 million years ago there were dinosaurs. But they weren't the only animals that roamed the planet. Recently, scientist have found a three horned insect about the size of a fly. They call this insect a unicorn fly, but the scientific term for this creature is Cascoplecia insolitis. And because of it's bizarreness, scientist have placed it in a new insect family. The bug has small razor teeth that scientist have believed that it's for munching up pollen and that this insect is a pollen collector. It has most of the characteristics of a fly. A couple of this animals characteristics are that it has long legs, and a spiral antenna. SCientist have found it in an ember so since the animal kept its natural shape the scientists can look at the body parts and do experiments on it to find out more stuff about it.

The Scientific Method

In our science class, we have been learning about the scientific method. The first step of the scientific method is to ask a question. This basically means to wonder about what you're doing. The second step of the scientific method is to do research. This means to find out things about your topic. The third step of the scientific method is to construct a hypothesis. This means to make an educated guess about your topic. The fourth step of the scientific method is to test with an experiment. This means to test your notes and see if your hypothesis is correct. The fifth step of the scientific method is to analyze your results. This means to check and see if your results are correct. The sixth step of the scientific method is to draw a conclusion. This means to find out the answer. The seventh step of the scientific method is to see if your final answer is true or false. If your answer is true then you report your results. But if your answer is false, then you have to try again. These are the steps of the scientific method that we learned in our science class.
