Daytona Pick up... sort of ;)

...I'm going to take all my snakes in when we do genetics this year. I think it will really help engage them is a topic that can be a little abstract for them! I'm going to teach them how to make all the morphs and them have them propose pairings between the snakes and tell me the outcomes. This is the first year I am trying this and hope it works!

That sounds like a GREAT idea! Wish that could have happened when I took high school biology! We had fruit flies - whoopie!
 
Thanks, Kathy. I am hoping it works. I teach a lot of low-income, troubled kids, many with gang affiliations and it can be a challenge to get them interested in school. I figure the lure of getting to play with my snakes with help offset the pain of learning genetics! ~grins~
 
I routinely use the critters in my classroom, and it is a great engagement. Also a great motivator... "You can't hold Rio until you finish X."
