bargain1

Bargain is usually used when you are trying to buy something or when you are trying to negotiate about something.

Bargain =

  • an agreement between two parties
  • to negotiate terms of exchange

 

Example of sentences where the word bargain can be used:

  • We bargained for a cheap shirt at the local bazaar.
  • Lucy made a bargain with her brother in which she promised to give him a cupcake as long as he kept his pet tarantula away from her room.

What other sentences can you think of that uses the word bargain? =D

Amphibia? (O_o)

Frogs belong to a zoological class called Amphibia.

Amphibians, like reptiles, are cold-blooded vertebrate animals.

However, the difference between them is that amphibians lack scales and generally return to water to breed.

 

There are three types of Amphibians:

  • Anura or Salientia (frogs and toads)
  • Caudate (salamanders and newts)
  • Caecilians (worm-like amphibians)

 

Are toads and frogs the same? (o_O)

Yes, toads are actually frogs!

Even so, they still have slight differences between them.

 

Frogs:

  • two bulging eyes
  • strong, long, webbed hind feet that are adapted for leaping and swimming
  • smooth or slimy skin
  • lay eggs in clusters

 

Toads:

  • stubby bodies with short hind legs
  • warty and dry skin
  • paratoid (or poison) glands behind their eyes
  • tend to lay eggs in long chains

SLUGGISH SNAILS!

Did you know?

Common snails have pale grey moist skin. At the front end are four tentacles, the shorter two are for feeling and the longer pair are eye stalks.

Common snails feed by scraping a ribbon-like tongue covered in horny teeth called a radula, over their food. This allows them to scrape algae and lichen from the surface of rocks and walls. You can sometimes see the trails they leave behind as they eat their way through the algae on a damp wall.

 

GAMEPLAY

  • This game requires you to use your typing skills.
  • Use the keyboard to type.
  • Type out as many words as you can to wipe out the snails before they reach the growing sunflower plant!

 

GAME HINT

You will also need keen eyes and a good memory!

 

ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED TO KNOW?

The higher the level, the faster the snails! (O_O)

 

Last but not least… good luck! —-> Have a go?
