The Art Room
Red Clawed Crabs!
So many classrooms at my school are getting awesome class pets, from our heroic Lola the Hamster, to a turtle, guinea pigs, fish, and even a desert tortoise! Well, I have some fish at home and of course while at the pet store picking up some fish food I saw these crabs!! In case you didn't know, I love crabs. Maybe because I'm from Baltimore? Or because they're delicious? I don't know, but I fell in love with these! They're super easy to take care of, and something my students don't always get t see up close and alive. So I figured, why not?! So let the naming process begin. We have decided one is a boy and a girl (as to not show favoritism...not based on any factual knowledge of crabs.... we just decided it's only fair to have a girl and a boy). As K-5th grade students visit the art room this week they are meeting the crabs(looking only!!) and getting a sheet to suggest possible names and why they feel the names would suit the art room crabs! So stay tuned for the results!
