A note from Ms. Young:
Today the kids tried their hands at classifying invertebrates into specific categories.
Here are some snippets of conversation that I eavesdropped as kids worked in groups to categorize their animals.
"I think earthworms are annelids!"
"Is a sponge a porifera?"
"Well, a flatworm is a parasite, and planarian is a parasite, so they must be the same."
"A starfish must be an echinoderm because it's kinda spiky."
"You called a sea urchin cute???"
"Squids and octopus are definitely both mollusks."
Wow! It's always a pleasure to listen in on Peabody kids :)
