<p>It appears that you are making one activity out of two. It might
be easier to construct two separate Sugar activities. <br>
</p>
<p>The second activity seems to depend on internet access. Perhaps
two-thirds of our users have limited or no access to the internet.
<br>
</p>
<p>Perhaps it is possible to construct the activity to access data
alternatively from a usb drive (Storage on an XO laptop is very
limited). <br>
</p>
<p>Keep in mind that our users do not speak English as a native
language and are certainly not familiar with Latin. The Latin
names are fair since they are equally unfamiiar to everyone.
However, these names identify a set of objects with similar
characteristics. Call it a canine or a dog, it is still referring
to a four-legged mammal, etc. However, the characteristics of many
phyla are not familiar to the average user. <br>
</p>
<p>Consider in making your activities how understandable any text
used will be. Users who encounter problems, hit the stop button.
The mantra is 'low floor, high ceiling'.<br>
