Hi Preps
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all the wonderful things you have learnt about caring for pets, especially dogs. I have 2 dogs, Leo and Lily. They are little dogs and I would like them to live to 100, but as Cormac said that probably won't happen. I would like to add a photo here but the blogs don't let us do that with comments. If you visit Middle S' classroom you can see a picture of them on the Middle S "pet wall".
I look after Leo and Lily, by giving them:
- healthy dog food
- fresh water
- bones once a week
- 2 walks almost every day
- lots of love!
I didn't know that dogs need to be brushed every day, Eva. I need to do better there.
Bye!

Hi Preps, Well I think you will all be even better pet owners after all the things you have learnt this term. It is a BIG responsibility to own a pet and make sure they are fed and looked after properly. It is everyone in the family's responsibility to share caring for them as well.
ReplyDeleteDo the preps who have pets at home help to fed and care for them?
Mrs Bellesini :)
Hi preps,
ReplyDeleteYou have learnt so many important things about pets and especially dogs. When I was young I was always very scared of dogs. I wish that I had all this special knowledge that you now have about dogs and then I would not have been so afraid.
Luckily now that I am grown up, I realize how friendly most dogs are and how to behave around new dogs.
Thanks for sharing your learning,
Mrs Verona Gridley
We have 2 puppies they are 4 months old and their names are Bella and Rocky. We care for them by giving them food, water, shelter, toys, take them for walks and play with them. Olivia
ReplyDeleteHello Prep K,
ReplyDeleteWe are from another Prep class at a school not far from you. We have also been learning about animals and how to take care of them. Last week we went to the RSPCA and learnt about how to care of lots of different animals. We really enjoyed reading about your visit from the nurses from vets and we learnt lots of new things about dogs. Our teacher brought her labrador puppy into school and we learnt lots about taking care of puppies and dogs. We also had some chickens in our classroom, just like you!
Prep W would love to share our learning with you, please have a look at our blog.
