Background

• Over the past several weeks we studied a
  see-through terrarium that contained a rotting
  log. We saw many interesting creatures like
  pillbugs, potato bugs, millipedes, meal worms,
  beetles as well as wood, leaves, moss, and soil.

3
We used a Proscope (microscope) attached to an
iBook computer to get a closer look at all the
interesting things in our terrariums. We have
made some riddles for you. See if you can
identify which critters or things we observed.
