Lions, and Tiger, and Bears! Oh, My!

Today in third grade, Mrs. Hodge's students presented their animal reports. They visited classrooms throughout Gilbert Elementary to share interesting facts learned about animals, diet, appearance, and habitats. What fun it was for everyone!

Check out these two students from Mrs. Richardson's homeroom!

Hannah Minshew taught us all about kangaroos!

Jathan Harding taught us about capybaras.
