Taking care of a Fiddler Crab

January 13, 2012 on 8:47 am | In Science | No Comments

In sand, fiddler crabs have no problem digging burrows.

We have adopted out all our fidder crabs.  Here are links to sites that I found that tell you how to care for fiddler crabs.  Basically sand and salt water.  We fed them dried plankton.  You can find the supplies you need at a pet store or pet department of a store.

Sound – Homemade Instruments

April 19, 2010 on 9:31 am | In Sound | No Comments

The final project of our Sound Unit in science was to create a homemade instrument.  Then they had to present it to us.  They had to present:

  • How they made it and how it works
  • How we hear the sound it makes
  • How they change the pitch

They worked really hard on them, and we enjoyed their presentations.  I uploaded these videos to Schooltube, so we can see them here.
