Colorful Creatures


Ron and Mrs, Newton discovered these colorful creatures today with Cara and her mother. Do you know the name of these creatures? More importantly, can you guess where these were discovered?

An Open and Shut Mystery




This sea creature has a soft body and wears a shell. The part of the creature you see helps to protect the soft parts of the animal. It also helps the animal avoid drying out if the tide goes out, leaving it out of water for awhile. To what creature does this belong? What is this part?
Ron


Maybe this photo will help. While Ron was visiting, he borrowed a larger shell from Mrs. Taylor's class to show us how the little piece works.

"Back" to a Mystery



These backs are to a creature I think you will guess quickly. But the real mystery is why do you think I am seeing so many of these backs right now?
