This week we were look
enough to go to the zoo. The weather was beautiful and we had a great time.
The children thought about
what they liked about the zoo:
Parker: The tigers were
really scary and also have sharp teeth.
Isaac: I like the pandas,
they eat bamboo.
Tommy: I liked the
playground. It had a high slide.
Leo: I like the pandas too.
They were my favourite.
Leonardo: Pandas are the
animal I love in the whole wide world.
James: The boy lion roared.
Yifan: I saw the giraffe. I
like it.
Where did the animals live?
Tommy: The bats live in the
cliff.
Alana: The tiger lived in a
cage.
How do the animals feel
about living in a cage?
Liliana: They would be sad.
They don’t have their own house.
Sam: They feel sad. They
might be cold.
Yifan: They might cry.
We will continue to
investigate why animals live in zoos. This will
also link into the children’s work on empathy.
We have continued our work on forces
and made a balloon rocket.
Tommy: The balloon rocket was
very quick.
Jack: It was a push because it
pushed over us.
