[Edu] Making Games

[Magi D. Shepley]

Bill's written directions made more sense; I have to admit that I've 
never played Aquarius before.  And...  here's interesting news...  one 
of the other teachers in my Biology class did her hands on activity with 
vertebrates and invertebrates, and the kids played dominos with it... to 
match up the characters, and such.  I felt like jumping up and saying, 
"HEY!  Are you reading my EMAIL???" ;)
