Meet Our Classroom Pet

I'm sure your students have told you a bit about our classroom pet. We have a seven-week-old hedgehog, named Radley, and I think the kids are already in love with him.


Fun facts about hedgehogs:

-Hedgehogs are nocturnal.
-Domestic hedgehogs eat cat food.
-Hedgehogs are hypoallergenic. 
-When in a defensive ball, hedgehog quills are quite sharp. But, if the hedgehog is relaxed, the quills feel like the bristles of a hairbrush.

Welcome!

Hello parents! I'm so happy you've arrived at our classroom blog. I'll be using this as a platform to share news and updates from our classroom with you. I hope to update weekly (as time permits) and hope that you will continue to check back and read up on our adventures. This blog is my effort to create a bridge between home and school, which is an incredibly important aspect of a successful education. I hope that this is an easy and enjoyable way for you to stay connected with your child's work at school.

I am looking forward to a wonderful school year.

-Mrs. Mikrut
