=Your Medaka story= You are to create a multimedia story of the life of your Medaka egg. You can tell about the development from the Medaka's point of view, create an anticipation for the great day of hatching, use some interesting narration to create interest, or other creative ideas. In your story, you must:
 * show pictures of the various stages (enough pictures to show all parts required plus any development stages). Pictures are not required for every day but it is suggested you have as many pictures as possible to choose from
 * discuss structures and the functions throughout
 * discuss the developmental stages you see (first heartbeat, etc.)
 * identify an age of your egg at each stage/picture you show
 * basics of what medaka's require to survive to hatching and beyond
 * be creative in your presentation. some examples: "how not to kill a fish", "what my fish must be thinking", "As new parents, we can't wait!", "The life and times of _____", "What to expect when you are waiting for your fish to hatch," and more....
 * use any multimedia tool that can embed in the wiki. For example, you can write and create a newsletter but pages would show as a download, therefore you would need to upload to scribd in order for it to show when your wiki page is opened. Some great applications you can use: comic life, cartoon online apps like pixton, glogster, voicethread, garageband, imovie, powerpoint/keynote, pages...
