Researcher pours plaster down anthill

Now we have had more fun with this picture and I got several questions about it in class yesterday. They were questions that I did not know the answer to but they got me wondering. One of you wanted to know exactly how the scientist used the plaster. How did it work? How did they get this study done? You were curious about so many things.

I plan to show you how I went about finding the answer. But for now I have a challenge for you. See if you can answer some of the questions you asked by looking through the article. I warn you that it is quite long but don't let that put you off. I found out some fascinating things. You will too!  Have fun! Use the comments feature here to post answers. Any other classes want to join in, feel free! Here is the article link.

Now blogicians you know that we are researching about blogging and how it affects your literacies. Aren't you glad that we didn't have to use plaster in our research? For those who interpret things literally this is an attempt at humor.  :-)

Can't wait to see you tomorrow!

I'm curious to know how he knew how long to wait untill it was all done with.I wish I could pour plaster down an ant hill at my house but safety comes first.

I still think the picture looks like a tree. what if they poured anti freeze down on. then what will happen.

Hey,
I think it is very intresting that a researcher would pour plaster down an anthill! But it was a good idea. Check out my blog and you will see my next post. The post is about the answers to the questions about the researcher that poured plaster down an ant hill!
Gotta go,

That would be so cool if i could go to my house and pour plaster down an ant hill. Have you ever tried that and will you?

I wish we could pour some plaster down an anthill. I still haven't been able to make that comment to Mr.Fisher I'll try to though.

I knew that was an ant hill and I fugured he wanted to find out was down there

Hey,
I wouldn't try to pour plaster down an ant hill because of you dig that plaster up you might get bit by millions of ants. Also I can't belive that you got 57 comments from a different class. I will try to get Mr.Kuropatwa to make his kids comment to that post and try o guess what it is.
