The Zoo is my classroom!














Hi Superstars,

hope you had a great time at the zoo. I did! :)
The class was interesting, wasn't it?
I certainly learnt a lot about animal coverings.

Can you please share with me 3 things that you have learnt from the trip. 
Please post your reflections here.

Look out for photos. They will be posted very soon! :)

With lots of love,
Mrs Watt

  1. I have learnt that the fur of the polar bear is transparent and not white in colour. Polar bear also has black skin. I have also learnt that penguines have feathers, although we cannot really see it. I enjoyed looking at the specimens that were once alive in the classroom.

  4. Arctic fox and Polar bear the colors are black if Polar bears live in the warmer place the fur will be black like the Arctic fox.I learnt that WHEN THE KILLING STOPS THE BUYING WILL.I do not know if it is right.They use also snow leopard skin for winter coats.One time I saw a winter coat in a SHOP
    it was from and animal but I did not buy it I think i t is from Bali I saw it I guess.Big cats,snake and other animals the use them for fashion things.
    This is the End.I wish the school could do a trip to the zoo from every primary.I hope I have a fun time in the zoo again and buy things if teacher let us.:) :) :)Goodbye

    I have learnt that the longest snake in the world is Python. The fur of the Polar bear is transparent. As for turtle, it makes me realise that the body covering is the shell, but the other side of its body is made of scales. It is used to protect the turtle.
    It's a great fun time to the Zoo. Hope to be there again.

  18. Hi dears,

    Thank you for all your reflection. I had a great time reading them. I hope that you can encourage your classmates to post on the blog. Maybe they have written the website address wrongly.

    Jen: I totally agree with you that killing animals to make them into fur clothes is extremely cruel. I also hope that they will stop!

    Xiangzhe: Anacondas and king cobras are names of snakes. However, people think that they are the longest snake because of movies. In reality, the longest snake is the python.

    I hope that you have enjoyed yourself at the zoo. I did!!! :)

If you hurt an animal and the animal is being hurt. Imagine if you are the animal will you get hurt? So think before you do someting by: 'AIN SYAFIQA
