    The document summarizes a student's field study over 8 weeks observing plants and animals in O'Hair Park. In the first week, the student observed that the area was covered in shadow and grass with one large oak tree. No wildlife was seen. The student predicted that the grass and leaves would grow larger, more insects would be present in the summer, and more weeds would grow as the grass turned browner. The student recorded measurements at the introduction and planned to record updates every 2 weeks to track changes over the study period.
