Ms. Tiboldo's Dad is on TV...

for saving the life of a coworker in July....because he knew CPR (cardio pulmonary recuscitation) and jumped into action when his coworker's heart stopped!

If you missed the segment when it aired, you can go to the link below to watch it:

I am very proud of my father...he is a real hero!

Protist Diagrams

For those of you who did not finish the diagrams of the amoeba, paramecium and euglena during the two-day protist station-fest, here are the cute unicellular organisms that I promised.....








Paramecium






Euglena (only label the nucleus, chloroplast, flagellum and eyespot/photoreceptor)

They are too cute....and even cuter under the microscope!

Have a great weekend!
