This morning, Daniel asked, "Ms. Joseph when did we get two crayfish??" I replied, "We didn't. What is that?!" Taking a closer look into our tank, we discovered that the crayfish molted last night. What an exciting discovery for us as learners! This has created all sorts of great wonderings that we are going to explore!
Challenge Question:

Coming out of a shell - Cameron Oliver
ReplyDeleteThat's correct! Thank you for commenting!! :)
DeleteBratcher said it means to shed his skin. He also says the crayfish will eat it too.
ReplyDeleteThat's right!! Thank you for commenting!:)
DeleteAiden says it is when they grow out of their skin.
ReplyDeleteYes! They then "molt" to get out of the shell/skin that's too small for them so they can grow in a bigger shell/skin. Thanks for commenting!:)
DeleteKelsey says to grow skin or a shell.
ReplyDeleteThey grow out of the old shell or skin that's gotten too small for them and they come out of it so they can now grow in a bigger shell that's underneath.
DeleteHaliegh says that it means to shed its skin and grow a new one.
