By now, you probably have
heard of Rascal, the raccoon, who visits with the kindergartners every
morning. In fact Rascal has been the class mascot for some 25 years for
the kindergartners in our school.
Rascal is...well...a rascal and gets into a bit of trouble. He helps the students to learn what is right and wrong. He also loves the kindergartners and he gives each of them a hug in the morning or a tail whip when he is being a rascal.
When he visits with the
children in the morning he poses questions and problems and I think that the
students learn social skills and manners from him. He encourages them to
try hard in school and to follow the rules. He is all good!
Rascal is also very funny! This week he told the kids that he roasted a marshmallow on his tail. Also he went swimming at the pool using his tail as a propeller and then dried himself while riding on the ceiling fan. The kids love their morning visit with Rascal! |
