Mr. Lane's Class Talks About Animal Rescue and Turtle Gardens

Last Friday my mom had a chance to spend some time having an open discussion with Mr. Lane's gr.4 class.  She was so impressed with how well they listened. They were all extremely quiet and respectful.  They asked some really good questions, gave some very thoughtful ideas, and talked about some concerns they had. They had a chance to read a few blogs and even left a few comments. Mom says these children are part of our future and will be the ones who determine what happens in animal care. I am so happy that they are taking an interest in learning better ways to treat animals. Including the importance of having all their pets spayed or neutered.

During their conversation, they did what's called a "WE  KNOW - WE WONDER - WE LEARNED"

I'd like to put it here so you can see what they came up with. They hope that they will have a chance to work on it more because they said they think there's still lots to learn.  It sounds like they ran out of time but mom hopes they will continue again soon.  In the mean time I want to say thank you to all the children who had a chance to write to me. Ive read all your comments and will reply to you soon. Some of you forgot to leave your name so I don't know who you are. I did get a comment from Sirrus and Katie Raine so Thank you very much to you both :-) That was sweeeeet!

Oh yea and guess what else?!  There are 24 students in this class and every day, everyone of them votes for Turtle Gardens in the PetFinder challenge. NOW Thats AWSOME !!
THANK YOU MR. LANE FOR YOUR SUPER GREAT CLASS!
