Jodi Berenson's first grade class had an unusual substitute teacher this week – Boston Bruins forward Tyler Seguin dropped by during their math lesson at Beebe School Tuesday to sign autographs, take pictures and help teach students about “greater than” and “less than” signs.
Students will also be featured in an article in Sports Illustrated for Kids and the Boston Bruins website.
Students in Ellen Kee's fourth grade class and Barbara Malo kindergarten class also enjoyed a more casual visit – but no math lesson - from Seguin.
The program was part of the Bruins “I Can Excel” (or I.C.E.) program, which provides free curriculum materials to students from Kindergarten through sixth grade throughout New England.

What a great experience for the kids at Beebe that were fortunate enough to meet Mr. Seguin! It's too bad that the other kids in the school didn't have the opportunity to meet him as well. Looking forward to seeing the kids in the SI for Kids & the Bruins website! A great memory for them! And kudos to the ICE program as well!
