Our class pet Bob Franklin



On Monday the 27th of March room 3 was playing T-ball out on the field by some trees. our team was batting, we were waiting for our turn under trees when suddenly something started crawling up Matthew's leg! It was a little green leaf bug. We showed Mrs Matthews, she said to go find something to put him in. We went to our recores room we found a wooden box made out of wood with breathing holes and a glass lid. We did some research on what leaf bugs like to eat, drink and their habitat. We also found out that he drinks water from the leaves so we dipped the leaves in water for 10 seconds and put them in his house. We got leaves, grass, bark sticks, sticks, rocks and lots more. some people in our class wanted to call him franklin and some wanted to called him Bob so we called him Bob Franklin. he looked very happy but we were scared he was'nt going survive the night becase it was very very cold!!! He ate and drank lots. Everone loved him very much!!!
