In one of our most anticipated yearly activities, kindergarten recently took an all day field trip to the Beardsley Zoo. This is the culminating activity to our year long study of animal groups. Our budding zoologists completed an animal scavenger hunt where they found specimens from each group and listed the characteristics that helped them classify them. We also got to go behind the scenes for an animal encounter where we learned about animal adaptions and got to touch some pretty cool animals to feel the differences in their bodies. Much to our students delight we brought our own lunches and dined al fresco! No zoo trip would be complete without a ride on the carousel! A great time was had by all!
