A Trip to the Zoo






We went to the zoo! How about you? We took a field trip to the Birmingham Zoo after studying zoo animals. We had so much fun seeing all the animals, riding the train, and feeding the Lorikeets. We even worked on our map skills while we were there. Thanks to all the parents and volunteers who helped make our day so much fun!
