Sweet Miss Theodora

Hi there!  This is Deedee from Mrs. Wills Kindergarten and I am so excited to be part of Erica's wonderful blog dedicated to our little friends.
Two years ago I decided I wanted a class pet for Christmas.  I have to say, I LOVE MY PIG!

During Writer's Workshop, I wrote about it with my kindergarten kiddos.

You can read more about this writing here.

My husband humored me and we found Miss Theodora!   We seriously went to MANY places before we found her.

 Isn't she beautiful?

 She has a special bond with our evening custodian who sneaks into the kitchen each night to bring her treats.   He was out sick for a few days and I thought she was going to have a FIT!   She kept squeaking at the substitute custodian... poor guy had no idea that was also part of his job description.

Then this summer I was hanging out on Amazon.com and LOOK WHAT I FOUND!

I promise I did not know about this book when I named her!  My class loves this book and we have read it over... and over... and over...

I can't wait to hear about the other fabulous classroom critters that are out there.
Won't you share with us?
