1. Go online. Choose a group of organisms you are interested to work with (e.g. invertebrates); 2. In tabular form, list all the characters. Evaluate the characters (whether primitive or derived). 3. Remember that in building your cladogram, use only shared derived characters. 4. Construct your own cladogram.
