we used plastic easter eggs, strips of making tape and parts of paper bags to make mini versions of our big mama snake.
at the beginning of the year i mentioned that in the spring, mama snake (who hangs in our classroom all year) would have babies. the preschoolers remembered!
yeah, mama snake!
mama snake had 44 babies that week…and all 44 were adopted and went to new homes.
