Zoo Time
Lions, Tigers, and Bears… Oh
My!
This month we are learning about the ZOO! We are in the midst of writing our zoo animal
research books. I started the unit out
by reading lots of zoo books!
We then made a list of zoo animals we love. I guided them in picking six animals I have
ready to research. Lions, kangaroos, sea
lions, pythons, orangutans, and giraffes, are the animals we are focusing
on. From there we used our QR code
posters to research different aspects of the animals. It’s a blast!
Take a look at our research!
To carry over our theme into math and reading we have
been using centers and QR code animal riddles.
All around the classroom are animal riddle QR codes. Early finishers can walk around and infer
what animal is being described. To
reinforce our math concepts of fractions, tens and ones, and addition to 20 we
have been using zoo themed centers.
We are so excited to be learning about zoo animals
and can’t wait to visit the zoo at the end of the month to see our animals in
their habitats.
