Classroom Extras

HARVEY was our classroom pet!  He is a Russian Tortoise.  He could typically be found in his tank sleeping, sunbathing, eating or chilling in his water basin.  The 3rd grade "helper of the day," was responsible for adding water and feeding Harvey.  His favorite foods included: romaine, grapes, strawberries, carrots and blueberries.  Harvey enjoyed walking around the classroom during spelling tests or low traffic times.  Harvey passed away in October, we will miss our friendly little guy. 

Puzzles!  Students enjoy the challenge and team work a good puzzle takes.  On any given day, there will be a puzzle out on a back table to work on when assignments are finished, snack break, or during free time.
