Brandi Adams, a student teacher at Elcan-King Elementary, conducted a lab observation with Veronica Pearce’s and Teresa Odom’s third-grade classes recently.

With the help of the snake owner, Bailey Gause, the students enjoyed some discussion about the individual snakes and a brief question-and-answer session.
