Homework:
Research for the ant debate
Everything you need to know is on my site; Due dates are on this page and my calendar.
Here is the story if you do not know it.

Today:
We started research in the library.  I figure the first step for this debate is to determine what kind of ant is in the story Hey, Little Ant.  I had the students start at the Terminex site.  By determining the type of ant, I figure students could start to determine if the ant should be killed, or even what happens if the boy were to try to kill it.  The deeper question is Does it matter if the ant is deadly or not?  We will get to that later.
