Our class has been taking care of two snails for the past few months. We learned that snail habitats are local to our community here at George Peck (we found many snails on our nature walk to the forest early in the fall). We have been feeding the snails greens such as lettuce and spinach and have noticed that one has grown very big recently. We observed that our snails also like to eat carrots. Today we fed them an apple slice and they loved it! Students take turns spraying the snails with water daily as it is important to keep their shells moist. We are learning to be responsible in caring for our class pets.
