The first discrepancy is the age equivalent of the hamsters used. Morris, Weil and Nelson (2013) explained that 40 day old hamsters are the equivalent to approximately 13 year olds and 80 day old hamsters are the equivalent to approximately 16 year olds. Thornhill, however, used a different hamster to age ratio. He included that 40 day old hamsters were equivalent to 16-20 year olds and the 80 day old hamsters were equivalent to adults (Thornhill, 2011). Thornhill tweaked the information…

A great class pet for 1st graders must be relatively small, somewhat quiet, able to live by itself on the weekends, and cannot be venomous or aggressive. With that in mind, I think that a chinchilla, hedgehog, or hamster would all make great class pets. All of these animals are friendly and have cages that can either be put in corners or on top of counters, so they won’t take up too much space. Also they don’t require constant care, so you could leave them at school on the weekends as long as…

taught values that my seven-year-old brain struggled to understand. Pets are difficult to care for, so most would assume that we begged for this privilege. In reality, my mother was the animal-lover who heard about a local hamster breeder. I wish someone guided us inexperienced hamster owners because we unknowingly brought home a boy-girl pair. My family figured this out when we woke up one morning to find six newborn pups. Sadly, the first two batches from these new parents did not survive.…

The book that I have chosen is called Jenius The Amazing guinea Pig by Dick King-Smith and illustrated by Brain Floca. This book is a chapter book with seven chapters, but even though it is a chapter book it has pictures along with it. This book is a very funny book about a little girl and her guinea pig. This little girl named Judy had two guinea pigs and one day they had one little baby. She had told her class she could train a guinea pig and she was made fun of so she thought this was the…

Hamsters were used to study aggression because they exhibit aggressive tendencies toward one another, but don’t fatally harm each other. Adolescent hamsters were put in a cage with an older, more dominant and aggressive hamster. As adults, these hamsters became more aggressive when around smaller, weaker hamsters, but if placed in an environment with hamsters the same size or larger they became scared and skittish. This phenomenon…

Essay Students often get bored in class, especially in English. In order to spark interest animals can be brought in.

very true of social inequality, and more specifically racial inequality, in the United States of America’s current social climate. Racial inequality in our social climate is comparable to a hamster wheel. A hamster wheel allows one to run even when their space is confined, but no matter how much they run, a hamster wheel does not accommodate a great deal of forward movement. While there have been great forward strides in the fight against racial inequality, racial inequality is still prevalent…
