Larry the Lightbulb

Do you remember "Larry" the light bulb?  Well it is your turn to use your imagination and make other things "talk."  Go to your refrigerator and look inside.  Choose one thing; a gallon of milk, ketchup, some leftovers, ice cream in the freezer, whatever!  If this item could talk what would it most want the world to know?  Be creative and have fun!  Please make sure to include your teacher's name and your FIRST name so I know who to give the CARES coupon to.   Remember, technology is about thinking!  :)

Yes, this is a dinosaur's chin!  Actually both of these pictures are life-sized replicas  of dinosaurs that live at "Dinosaur Hill" in Rapid City, SD.  Please write at least one sentence sharing your thoughts about what you think life would be like if dinosaurs still lived on earth with us.    Hmmmmmmmm.......
