Dear Students and Parents:

Mrs. Salmon will be travelling out of town for the holidays this year.  This means that I need some very responsible, helpful students to adopt Lucy, our hamster, as well as Reepicheep, our young frog, for the winter break.

They are both very low maintenance pets and all supplies will go home with the pet (food; treats; etc.) including a sheet of information about our classroom pets to get you through the week.

The cages/tank will not “need” to be cleaned for the couple weeks – but of course you can feel free to do so if you are inclined.

Of course, as much as the kids believe they rule the house, we know the parents do – so next week I will be looking for children who deserve this special privilege over the break – but also have the OK from their parents.

Please let me know if you would be OK taking home either of the animals, neither of the animals, or just one or the other.

On Wednesday, December 22^nd, two lucky students will leave for break with one of our class pets in their care.

Thanks (in advance) for helping out and let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Mrs. Salmon
