In the future as I am thinking she has a tank, this is what you can suggest.

foil off the screen part of the tank
spray the tank once a day when not in shed and 3 times a day when in shed
make a humid hide for when he is in shed out of spagnum moss
Also when he goes blue...right before the shed you can take a wet washcloth and put it over the warm hide.

These should help her to have more successful sheds. Also not sure if she does but she should have a UTH being controlled by the thermostat and then probably a light for the cool side since it is really cold in there. Maybe print out the care sheet for her to help her out.

It really isn't an adequate set up. I am afraid to say anything though. You never know, she may write me up for undermining her authority or something like that. She has heat tape, but I don't think she has a thermostat. Maybe I'll just anonymously slip the care sheet onto her desk. There's just not much she can do keeping it in a classroom, I suppose.
