This is Me (left) Autumn (Right) and don't ask me why, but Lydia ( on top). The little blue figure Autumn and I are holding is the one and only.. IKA WIKA!! That is our plankton. She is beautiful, as you can see. Though she was beautiful, her good looks didn't make her at all successful. She was too heavy at the tail and sank to the bottom quickly. We did get fourth place out of the class though and she landed feet first so we were proud of our plankton! We used a lot of clay because clay is pretty buoyant in water, and also we used a sponge as her head to try and soak up the water to keep her floating. We think the reason our plankton wasn't very successful was because we put a brad as her tail along with a paper clip that dragged her to the bottom. I think if we wouldn't have used the brad, we would've done a lot better!
