Gloria Goes To School!

Today Uncle Ben brought a visitor into the boy's classes. Meet Gloria the Blue Tongued Skink! The kids had some great stories and questions about Gloria and Ben's other lizards. This is Gloria in her play pen

More of Kellen's class. One of the kids said that Gloria felt like corn on the cob. I guess she kind of does!

Mrs. Krahn did not want to touch Gloria. She "chickened out" said Ethan. She finally did touch her but Ben had to turn her around. So Gloria wouldn't look at Mrs. Krahn while she was touching her.

The boys had a great time! The kids in the class loved it too! Thanks, Uncle Ben and Aunt Maire for sharing your pets with the kids!
