Research- 10 points
The answers to these questions are not in my lessons, and you will have to find alternate resources to answer them. (The Internet.)
When you do the discussion prompt below, you'll be speaking to one of the class snakes. Whether you decided to speak to Basil, or simply one of the class snakes, I want you to tell me more about them.
What kind of snake was it? What markings or traits defined it as that breed of snake? Does it have a name?
What kind of personality did they have? Were they willing to answer your questions, or did you have to bribe them with food? Did they have a different accent or dialect? Some breeds have different dialects, so be careful when asking them for help.
Anything else you want to tell me about that type of snake.
Include a link to an image of your snake, and 100 words about your snake.

Discover a noun by talking to the class snakes. Like the critical thinking questions in the homework assignment, you can choose to show the snakes an image, then deciphering their response. Make sure you check the discussion boards for what words have already been discovered, to help you on your search.
To get full points, you must find a noun no one else in the class has discovered. You must post how you discovered this word. If you showed the snake a picture, post it with your discussion, and tell us what the snake responded.
If you used another method, let us know how you did it.
