Gingerdead Genetics
While we were distracted by the Gingerdead War happening in the kitchen this week a love story has been blossoming at the other end of the bench. Nawww
Now, I don’t know a lot about Gingerdead genetics but there’s a lesson plan in here somewhere.
First a couple of Gingerdead skelemen got together and produced a couple of crumbs. The Gingerdead family was born.
The little one had an itch to scratch and you can see that didn’t go too well. He seems to like having his eye handy like that, though. Apparently it makes watching for mummydead men a lot easier when you are hiding behind the toaster.
In a shocking turn of events the two became three and an interesting phenotype appeared.
I haven’t sat down and done the punnet squares, but I shall keep an eye on future events and keep you posted. I’m sure there’s a lesson plan here somewhere 😉
In the meantime, if you on the lookout for a good genetics lesson then these Spongebob Squarepants Genetics classroom resources from The Science Spot have been a hit in any class I’ve seen them used in.
The Gingerdead Wars: Halloween 2013
Well, it’s been quite a week in our kitchen! In scenes reminiscent of the Ninjabread Wars of 2012 it’s been a battle of the undead gingerbread and we’ve run out of Miss Vivi’s Efficacious Anti Zombie Pills.
First, the Mummybread Man appeared. Creeping across the kitchen bench, trailing icing bandages everywhere. Look at his beady little eyes.
Where there’s one, there’s always more! Soon two more appeared to swell the ranks.
It wasn’t long before they caught their first victim and exposed its brain to feed on. Poor, poor zombiedead man 🙁
Then, of course, one thing lead to another and…
… now we’ve got an infestation of Zombiedead Men on our hands. There’s nothing for it but to crush them to bits and eat them. mmmmm……brains!
grrrrr…..arrrgh…..share

Freaky Fashion: Body Anatomy Sweatshirt
This little stunner has been sold, but they suggested it would be a good teaching aid for the classroom. I’m not sure about that. Is that a tiny liver on the wrong side of the body above the kidneys?
