Exotic Animals

We saw an alligator that was 4 feet long, and we saw snakes. There were some corn snakes. The corn snake was really sassy and had bit the owners before. The alligator slid across the floor. Some people were a little frightened by the alligator. One snake weighed 100 pounds. Lots of kids in our classroom got to hold the 16 foot reticulated python. There was also a raccoon. It's name was Thunder. There were lizards and iguanas. We saw a big spider. It was a tarantula We saw tortoises. One was little and the other was big. We saw skinks. They look like a lizard. It was fun.

Thank you to the parents who volunteered to send snacks while we took the Basic Skill tests. Thank you for buying good and yummy snacks. The snacks are very, very good to eat. Thank you to the students who brought the snacks to us. They were very, very healthy snacks. We had snacks two times a day. We all liked them. We had skinny and football looking snacks.

The cookies were good. Once we had a drink. The crackers made some us thirsty. We had breadsticks and cheese. Cupcakes are coming tomorrow.
