Great talking to you today. Technology is a wonderful thing when it works.
I did not have to go to the caterpillar zoo today. The zoo is where the caterpillars live in little plastic bags. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them in one little room. Instead I had to feed the caterpillars. They eat an interesting mixture of wheat germ and vitamins, but it looks like tofu. We had to take them from their homes in one plastic cup, separate them into new families of five and feed them. Then we put them away in a special closet that is climate and light controlled. The picture above shows you what they look like. The little brown stuff in there is not sugar. It is frass.
Activity:
Do you remember what frass is? Can you name an instrument( NOT a musical one) I might use to get the caterpillars out and leave the frass? Let me know when we SKYPE tomorrow. If you don't know the exact word in English, draw it and ask a friend to define it.
