Mr Straw and his World Of Creatures

By: Declan Panagopoulos

So hopefully you know who Mr Straw is; he is one of our awesome 6th grade science teachers! He also has a lot of animals in his classroom.

His favorite animal is George, the crested (or eyelash) gecko who was “freed from someone rehoming him.” Now with people wanting pets of their own, Mr. Straw was kind enough to tell me the cheapest and most expensive tanks he has. The cheapest is his crawdad and bluntnose minnow tank which his kids caught in the creek and the most “expensive” is his saltwater tank and his cichlid tank so there are two expensive tanks.

 Now that all of this has been explained let's talk about all of his creatures. Overall he has seven animals which in order of the tanks from left to right are the bluntnose minnow and crawdad tank, the clownfish tank ( it has a shrimp in it I just don't know what kind it is), the cichlid tank that has many types of cichlids, the crested gecko tank (which is home to george)

And the guppy tank that has blue guppies which died.
