WE'RE GOING TO THE ZOO, ZOO, ZOO

We began our zoo unit by making lions. Since it corresponded with the beginning of March, we related the saying that March comes in like a lion, and it certainly did with lot of heavy rains. I think all children love animals of any kind whether they are pets, zoo animals, ocean creatures, or insects. In the following weeks we will be covering many types of animals so the interest level is very high. Check out the following activities we did when when we visited the zoo, zoo, zoo.




Skills papers are so much more fun in masks!!!!!
Our unifix cubes became cages. We were able to review our shapes also.

These giraffes didn't need any cages because we surrounded them with our bodies.

Graham crackers and chocolate icing formed a base for our cages. Our wild animal crackers with pretzel bars turned into a most yummy snack.


We took an imaginary bus trip to the and you guessed it, we went to the zoo. Each student got to describe their favorite animal they saw. Such vivid imaginations!!!!
