We sliced zucchini and put it in the tadpole tank. We put in thin slices so the tadpoles could eat it. The zucchini slices float. We also tried boiled spinach. The boiled spinach sank to the bottom. The tadpoles liked the spinach the best so far.
Measuring our tadpoles:
Measuring our tadpoles was very hard because the tadpoles flop around a lot. One tadpole flopped itself into the filter and we had to grab it out. To measure the tadpoles we needed a ruler, a pencil, a notebook and the tadpoles (of course). We took the tadpoles out of the tank one at a time and measured them with a ruler and wrote the measurements down in a notebook. Tadpole 1 (Sleepy) was 4cm, tadpole 2 (Bob) was 6 cm, tadpole 3 (El Gordo) was 6cm, tadpole 4 (Taddy) was 3 cm, and tadpole 5 (Snorty) was 3 cm. We will do some math with these number tomorrow and share them on the next post.
** Brayden, Austin and Sydney's mom here: We will try to add some videos tomorrow! I am having a few challenges uploading from my iPhone so I will try a different format. I am guessing the videos are what most of the kids would like to see.
