Our Special Slithering Visitor

Today we had a very special visitor in Year One. Mrs Simpson brought her snake, Spencer, into class for us to look at. Spencer is a snow corn snake and we really enjoyed finding out about the things he needs to stay healthy, safe and happy. 

We learned that snakes are reptiles who need to stay warm to stay alive. Spencer eats rats and lives in a special tank with bright lights to keep him warm. He has tiny eyes that aren't very good at seeing, but he has a very strong sense of taste and uses his tongue to get information about the world around him.

Thanks, Mrs Simpson, for bringing Spencer to meet us! We hope you like the pic collages we made on the iPads to show some of the new snake words that we learned.

    Hi Year One,

    I remember when Spencer came to visit my class when I taught year Two. That was four years ago when you were all tiny Year One! Do you know how old Spencer is now? Miss M
