Taco Thomas

Taco Thomas is the newest addition to the Barnes Pre-K Family! Our Pre-K teacher, Ms. Danielle, was awarded a grant to support a classroom pet! He is a bearded dragon and his name was selected by the students.

This is such an enriching learning opportunity for the class. Children will learn responsibility in helping to care for Thomas. They will learn science and math information about what he eats, or what his habitat is like. They are learning new vocabulary words, and enjoying new dragon based stories.

We hope Taco Thomas is enjoying his new life in Pre-K!

Lou's Pet Shop

We love when Lou's Pet Shop comes to visit! Last Tuesday, children gathered in the gym for the opportunity to meet a variety of animals. They were able to talk to a parrot and pet a snake! Mr. Donnie shared interesting facts about what each creature ate, and their habitat. The children asked curious questions and were delighted to learn about each animal.

Thank you Lou's Pet Shop!
