Hi Jennifer,
Based on information in Deep River Jim's Wiidemess Trail Book, the rate at which 
crickets chirp varies linearly with the temperature. At 59°F, they make 76 
chirps per minute, and at 65°F they make 100 chirps per minute.

You need to go to all the sites I have listed in order to put your Science Fair 
Project together.

Have fun gathering all your information for your Science Fair Project about 
Crickets.
