Gertie visits!

Today we were delighted to have a visit from Gertie the rabbit! Thank you so much to Avery and his mom Debbie (and Aaron and Tammy) for bringing him to school for both the am and pm classes to see. It was great to get to see a real rabbit after reading facts about them and reading books. Gertie hopped around and let the preschoolers pet him - what soft fur! Avery answered all of our questions. I think everyone enjoyed watching Gertie hop around and wonder who he would hop by next. He really did have very large ears and feet. It was a pretty exciting visit. The am class had some added excitement as they got to practice an evacuation drill where we left the school and walked to the town hall. All of the preschoolers (and the rest of the school) did a wonderful job!
