Radical Reptiles

8/4/2021

 
We're exploring the fascinating lives of reptiles and amphibians this week and we kicked things off today with some awesome reptile facts. Did you know that horned lizards use blood as their defense mechanism and the Basilisk lizard defies physics and runs and water to evade predators! Awesome! Reptiles also shed their skin periodically as they grow so Mr. Jacob helped us all turn into reptiles for the day! We used elmer's glue on our hands and peeled the dry glue off to mimic the feeling of reptiles shedding skin. We then compared our 'shed' skin to that of real shed skin from snakes at APEC.
