Presenting The Platypus by Megan
Megan's 2nd grade class did animal research projects and Megan chose the Platypus. She finished up her diorama (with a little help from mom and Paige) last night and she took it to class this morning. We cut a slit in the back of the box and attached a cardboard handle to the back of the Platypus so he "swims" along inside the box. There is a real mussel shell and real stones in the bottom of the box and some paper grass and a worm that Megan added incase the Platypus gets hungry. We lined the box with water printed scrapbook paper and the ceiling of the box has star print paper since the Platypus is nocturnal.
