"The Crabs Have Changed!" Student Blog Post

 Please enjoy today's latest blog post, written by students in our class!

These student bloggers were asked to do a quick update on the status of our crabby friends, and they rose to the occasion in style! During a busy day filled with end-of-the-week routines, Good Friday activities, and lots of excitement, these student writers were able to give a succinct yet interesting report on one of the most interesting aspects of hermie life in the last couple weeks: the switching of the shell! Thank you, student bloggers, for being brave and confident in sharing your writing with a WORLDWIDE audience!  :)

As most of our classmates know, our hermit crabs have changed shells. Mr. Crabs has changed into a granite-colored shell. Ranger has changed into Mr. Crabs’ old shell. Home Run has changed into a very interesting shell. It is a cone-shaped shell with swirls, and it is white and caramel colored.

         

We also have a new tank. It is twice the size of the old one. In this past week, hermit crab groups have helped make the new crabitat, put shells in, fluffed up the sand and soil, crab-sat, put water and food in their dishes, and recorded information in our crabbles.
