Class Pets: Our class is now the proud owner of African Dwarf frogs! We are so excited for our new additions to the classroom. Students will be in charge of feeding the frogs twice a week. It will take a while to get through the class list, but everyone will get a turn. Feel free to come check out our class pets on the teacher desk!
