The second grade classes from George Hall Elementary went to Gulf Shores, Alabama to the Zoo. We saw many animals, including amphibians, goats, tigers, lions, bears, and monkeys. We learned about different species of animals and how to group animals into different species. We also learned about habitats and why it is important to conserve animal’s habitats. We learned about warm blooded animals and cold blooded animals and what the differences are in each. The zoo that we visited was featured on the Animal Planet’s The Little Zoo That Could.
