Montessori of Plainfield students recently had a visit from some very creepy crawlers. The students spent the morning learning all about the world of reptiles! The reptile expert, Mr. Jim Nesci's Cold Blooded Creatures from New Lenox, visited our classroom along with his creepy crawling creatures. The children learned amazing facts about each reptile and were able to pet and see all of the animals up close. It was definitely a fun and educational in-house field trip. The children really enjoyed themselves.
