Time to Hibernate!

The students of room 3 enjoyed their annual day of hibernation. The students have been learning about hibernating animals and had some hands on experience today with the help of their sleeping bags and some good books!

Unlike bears and squirrels, their hibernation was interrupted with a visit from Miss McFarland to see if they wanted to try out for the talent show. This year's talent show will be held on February 27, at 1:45. We hope to see everyone there!
