Mouse Update

Well Surprise, surprise......  We think our white mouse is pregnant!!!!  That is right my two female mice seem to be not two females and now we are having babies.  The KIDS ARE ECSTATIC!!!   Me not so much!  So now we are doing research on what Mama Mouse needs for her babies and how to care for them once they are born. 
Talk about Teachable moments!!!!  We are now like anxious dads waiting the arrival of our new class pets.  The discussion about adoption has already begun, but one thing is for sure.  As soon as they are born our little boy mouse is moving into a new tank otherwise she will be pregnant before the babies are weaned. 

Any parent who wants to adopt some really cute little mice, I can sex them for you when they are about 20-25 days old.  I promise to do a better job then Petco did.  I have done some serious research this AM on how to sex them and there is no denying that they are one of each sex.  Wish I had known that a month ago. 

SURPRISE!!!!

Homemade Wreathes

Our class made wreathes out of things we found in the woods, like pine cones, acorns, seed pods and other things found in nature. We  glued them on a peice of cardboard and it was tons of fun.  Next we are going to put a red bow on it to take home.
