We had a friendly visitor in our classroom today! This is a Gulf Coast Toad - aptly named “Toady” by the kids!☺️ 1st Grade studied his habitat, life cycle, ability to camouflage, & more! We even saw Toady enjoy some tasty bugs for lunch! It was a TOAD-ally awesome experience!

There’s no better way to kick off a new school year than with a read-aloud that sparks laughter and learning. “Dear Mrs. LaRue” helps us dive into context clues, inferences, and building strong character connections. Grateful for moments like this! ❤️💙 #RISDDreamBig #YaleSoaring
