Our class has been given a very unique opportunity this year. We have been given the opportunity to work with 2 very special dogs: Bear and Sugar. Both of these dogs are in the process of earning the canine good citizen certification and the reading education assistance dogs (R.E.A.D.) certification. These dogs can be used in many different areas: therapy, reading with students, discipline issues, counseling sessions, and as rewards for the classroom.
We invite Bear and Sugar to work with our class on many occassions during the week.
As you can see, Bear is very spoiled when he visits our classroom. We take him on walks and the whole class wants to help!
Sugar even joins in on calendar time and pays attention very well!
This is an excellent opportunity for our students. The dogs show unconditional love and get much more in return!
