These are invitations, not homework. No family needs to buy, visit animals, walk outside, photograph, upload, identify a species, disclose their location or test an animal. Paper examples are enough; participation says nothing about the child's learning. Families may naturally use a home language, but no verified translations are supplied. A home report is not imported as school Science evidence without local approval and verified source/date/method.
| Day | Thirty-second optional prompt | Bounded adult reply |
|---|---|---|
| 81 | “Is a cartoon a real animal view?” | “It is a drawing; a real source needs its own label.” |
| 82 | “What might a close picture leave out?” | “Things beyond the frame.” |
| 83 | “What would we check before showing a photo?” | “Who made it, where it came from and whether use is allowed.” |
| 84 | “Could two pictures show one subject?” | “Yes; source identity matters.” |
| 85 | “If something is cropped, is it gone?” | “We cannot tell from that frame.” |
| 86 | “What if no animal appears?” | “We record not seen, not an invented sighting.” |
| 87 | “Can a picture show how fast an animal runs?” | “A still feature does not prove speed.” |
| 88 | “Can we group two drawings?” | “Yes, as drawings; real animals need real sources.” |
| 89 | “How do we make a careful claim?” | “Name source, visible feature and unknown.” |
| 90 | “What would another source help with?” | “It may show a feature hidden in one view.” |
