4th Grade Snail Observations

Today was the first day with our snails.  We recorded our observations and reviewed how to handle our classroom guests.  Then we got them out so they could walk on transparency film.  They left lots of slime trails.  We also turned out the lights and used flashlights to observe their hearts beating inside their shells-so cool!  Then we placed note card ramps in front of them to see how they like to climb.
