OKAY ROUND 2!
I have 60 new fish in a bag, I have added a dechlorinator. I am letting them temperature acclimate to the water temperature. The 5 surviving fish from batch one are eyeing them with suspicion.
On a positive note. The kids were totally fine with not doing the fish part of their project today. They were fully engrossed in putting their bottles together and setting up their cricket homes.
Possibly my favorite part of this lesson is when I open the box of crickets and tell the kids to "okay go ahead and grab one." Somehow they never considered that they would have to touch and hold the cricket in the process of getting them into their bottles.
My classroom is very chirpy.
