Starting to bring the classroom pets home for the summer. Today most of the tarantulas/spiders make the trip and got setup on a new bookshelf. I like the layout so far and it's roomier than the previous one. #teacherlife #scienceteacher #tarantulas #tarantulasofthefediverse #tarantulasofmastodon
Got a new tat today ๐Ÿค˜. #tattoo #sciencetattoo #froganatomy #ScienceTeacher
Samples collected. Looking forward to our microscope safari tomorrow. #science #ScienceTeacher #scienceclass #teacherlife #microbiology
If you're not prepping a bacteria lab in your kitchen on a Sunday night, are you even a science teacher...๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ. #science #microbiology #scienceteacher #6thgrade #teacherlife

Classroom tank update...

The Elodea is going crazy and needs a trim. The neon tetras all died, but the gourami is doing great and has become very personable. Comes right up to the surface when feeding him! The shrimp are doing shrimp things and very cool to watch. Students sometimes just plop a bean bag in front of it and watch what's going on. ๐Ÿ˜Ž #aquarium #classroompets #scienceteacher

The back to school move in has begun. Last year I didn't set up an aquarium and several students asked about one so this year I am. The order for plants we use in some of our labs also came in super early and I had to do something with it so... #teacher #teacherlife #ScienceTeacher #aquarium #classroompets
Combined a few jars of pond water that I'd collected back in the fall for some classroom labs. Added the leftover Elodea stems and bam...got a cool, living jar aquarium experiment going on now ๐Ÿ˜Ž. #science #ScienceTeacher #ScienceMastodon #aquarium
