Reptiles

Morgan Weiss from "Homegrown Scales" came to visit with a few friends.  We learned a lot about snakes and bearded dragons.

 

April Fools' Day

Wait a minute, we don't do this EVERY day??!  

The afternoon of March 31st students in grades 4-6 will have visitors, reptile visitors to be more specific.  Morgan works at One Stop Pet Shop in Barre and has her own reptile breeding business.  She has generously offered to volunteer her time to share some of her pets with the class.  Parents are welcome to join us.  Specific time is yet to be determined, however it will be somewhere between 2-3.  All students are asked to have a permission slip signed if they would like to touch or hold any of the reptiles.  

Also, check out Rose's page.  She molted!!!
