-A booklet about shrimp, from a collection called "live in the ocean" We used that booklet a lot for geting informations and photos for this web.
It contains a lot of important informations and explanatory diagrams. It is printed in wo colors. A list of sources and further reading is in the booklet.
Numberal informations might be out of date.

We think most of these textbooks are rather old, but this is what we have got in our school.

Teaching ideas

bullet
Needlework: (textílmennt)
Sew a gentle shrimp-pillow. We could use a soft material like fleece. 
bullet
Visual arts:: 
Make shrimp-jumping jacks, using material like thick paper, wire and sticks. 
Jumping jacks like that are for example used in our cartoon.
sBackgrounds were drawed in thick paper and coloured with different kinds of colors.
We tried different kinds of color to see how they would look in the videotape.
We also studied the rate of the background and the persons in that cartoon. 
bullet
Cooking::
Cook something with shrimp and invite our parents to taste it.
Get recipes from our parents to try at school. með uppskriftir frá foreldrum til að prófa.
Get recipes frim the people who work in the shrimp factory Hólmadrangur.
bullet
ICT:
Publish recipes to the web.
bullet
Natural science:
Perform an autopsy on shrimps.
Get some knowledge from the teacher of natural science.
bullet
Samfélagsfræði:
Try to find out how many people in Hólmavík get their livings from the shrimp factory.
Visit the shrimps factory, interview some of the staff and take picture. 8th class did that and it was a great trip.
