Host of critters in Hughenden classrooms<br />
by Zac Rochon, Kimberly Hoyt<br />
At Hughenden Public School (HPS)<br />
teacher, Susan Reynolds has always<br />
kept animals in her room to provide<br />
students with the chance to connect<br />
and learn with the animals.<br />
The current host of critters, a corn<br />
snake, a tortoise, two bearded dragons<br />
and several fish have been given funny<br />
names like Snaky for the snake and<br />
Tort for the tortoise.<br />
Ms. Reynolds encourages students to<br />
take the animals out of their enclosures,<br />
to feed them and interact with<br />
them, even to carry them around the<br />
school to show others.<br />
“I keep animals in the classroom as<br />
they provide important connections<br />
for learning and help to nurture<br />
empathy in everyone,’’ said Reynolds.<br />
Students think it is a great idea for<br />
Ms. Reynolds to keep the animals in<br />

the school because it adds a unique<br />
part to the school experience, and they<br />
help provide students with great<br />
learning they wouldn’t otherwise<br />
experience.<br />
Students who are new to the school<br />
often take time in their mornings to<br />
visit the Science classroom where the<br />
animals are kept and some students<br />
take pride in volunteering to help<br />
Reynolds with their care and feeding.<br />
Reynolds also encourages the animals<br />
and students to share the<br />
classroom during instructional time<br />
whenever possible, and students can<br />
often be seen completing biology work<br />
with a critter on one shoulder.<br />
Marco, one of the two bearded<br />
dragon lizards, has an adventurous<br />
spirit and often wanders into the hall<br />
if there is nothing interesting for her<br />
to learn during class.<br />
Students and staff alike are learning<br />
to interact with the animals and help<br />
to care for them in and outside of<br />
school hours.<br />
