Puppy visit

Culminating our "Awesome Animal Unit", Rudy (Ms. Izard's 3-month old corgi puppy) made a visit to the The Lizards' classroom.  This week we are specifically examining how animals grow and change. We talked about what Rudy needs as a puppy compared to an adult dog and how his looks and weight will change. Also, we set up a veterinarian clinic in our room that the students can explore during center time.
