Today Cuddles came to join our classroom! We are all so very excited to have him as part of our classroom community. We built his cage as a team today, calculating how many squares we would need for the different cage shapes we had imagined. We then worked to put the cage together, shredded some paper for his home, and built him a hiding place.
As well, we spent time observing Cuddles and reviewed the ground rules for having a class pet. We agreed that only the adults in the classroom will handle Cuddles right now. We learned about the signs of a comfortable and happy guinea pig, and we will be on the lookout for these as he gets used to his new home. For now, students will be able to help add pellets and hay to the feeder. As well, they can help fill the water bowl and add fruit or vegetables to his cage.
