Crustacean and Echinoderm Costumes



Today in class we did our final review of crustaceans and echinoderms. Groups drew a random card and had 15 minutes to make a costume for one of people to wear. Materials included a stapler and a piece of paper. Mr. Straley stopped by in the middle of the fashion show and snapped this photo of Corrinn's crab walk (I am in the background wearing a barnacle hat). He posted this photo to his blog - you can check it out here.

Computer Lab Etiquette

You are in the computer lab to do work for this class. If you are not doing work, then we will have problems.

Do not pack up early. Work until the bell or until MsJ says.

SAVE OFTEN. And if you save to a key, also save it to your number. If you lose it, you will have to do it again.

If MsJ asks for your attention, stop what you are doing and listen to what she has to say.

You may watch videos about your organism through reliable websites.

You may listen to music through the computer if you have your own headphones. Rule1 MsJ cannot hear it. You get one warning. Rule2 Turn it on and listen – no million clicks and constant changing. Take both ear phones out when MsJ is talking.
