Hiya,
what do you use as your 'organisms' in the Lincoln Index capture-recapture prac?
I usually buy cannelini beans because they're cheap & white, so easy to mark with textas, but after a few classes have used them & marked with different coloured textas I throw them out, & I'm wondering if it would be better to get marbles or glass beads instead. That way I can just wash the texta marks off & use them year after year.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Beads

Hi Rita,
we are doing this too and the set up sheet I was given says two different coloured counters 15:100
I found it all organised and labelled in a box, I have recently inherited a very well organised workplace....feeling lucky

Re: Beads
We use coloured match sticks as well.
Just soak them for 1 min in food colour lay on paper towel over night to dry. I just have a tub of each colour and when I notice getting down just make some more.
Cheap and easy.
Cheers Trish
