Levine did He created the Uncle Milton Ant Farm more than half a century ago Today grandchildren of the first ant colony owners are watching ants working hard on the farm Milton Levine was not trained in the study of insects also known as entomology But he knew a lot about ants and he designed an appealing way to share his knowledge Mr Levine began his career as a maker of unusual toys after World War He had returned to his birthplace in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania after serving in the United States military He got the idea for his future career from a business newsletter which suggested that the best chances for jobs at the time were in toys He decided to make toys They understood that American society was about to change The huge population increase known as the Baby Boom was beginning There would be a huge demand for children s toys One day he saw ants parading around a swimming pool The sight made Mr Levine remember how much he had liked watching ants as a boy on his uncle s farm Those thoughts gave him the idea for the Uncle Milton Ant Farm Milton Levine developed a narrow green plastic container The top looked like a farm showing a farmhouse a barn a bridge and a windmill 风车 Under those images was a divider that separated the ants underground and above ground areas Under that was the sand where people could watch the ants digging passageways The first Uncle Milton Ant Farms were an immediate success They were sold in 1956 Two years later two million of the educational toys had been sold Through the years the toys continued to attract ant watchers People buy Uncle Milton Ant Farms from stores and order from websites During his life Mr Levine saw the sale of more than twenty million of his ant colonies The Uncle Milton Ant Farm tells far more than how to care for the

behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity As I took notes suddenly I thought of Clayton It struck me that I have many of the same faults How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out I too sometimes feel that only my opinion is right My concerns or work easily seems most important As my professor had described I reacted negatively to someone in
