We will be doing an interdisciplinary project combining science and art to explore variation within a genus of species using modeling with the materials of clay, markers, and acrylic paint.  We have been studying natural selection and VARIATION is a very important part of evolution by natural selection.

If you have free time this weekend, browse the website, watch the video, or read through the list of possible sea slug (nudibranchs) that you can choose from.  CHOOSE A SPECIES OF SEA SLUG so you are ready on Monday to begin sculpting right away.  Write down the name and scientific name in a private comment so you don't forget.
