Here are some pictures of our newest classroom pets: Fluffy and Kiss:

Fluffy is on the left and Kiss on the right (Fluffy is the brown calico and Kiss is the gray and white pig)

Kiss

They are one month old guinea pigs.  I feed them a piggy salad (romaine lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, spinach, parsley, strawberries, and other fruits and veggies) two times a day along with their hay.  Now…how to figure out how I will get them to school…hmmmm!

    Kristen-

    You should check out http://www.PetsintheClassroom.org. There is a grant available called Pets in the Classroom that provides up to $150 to K-6th grade teachers for the purpose of purchasing a classroom pet and/or pet supplies. It’s really easy to apply for and you hear back within a week as to if you will receive it.
