Group Zoo Project

After learning about zoo animals and zoo keepers, the class worked on a group project to create their own zoo.  They each got to choose an animal (from a selection we had cut out of animal magazines) and their task was to create a habitat for that animal. 

We had supplies such as green paper for grass, blue paper for water, and black for caves or whatever else they needed.  We added popsicle sticks and those were used for everything from gates and fences to trees.

 

The children took their task of creating habitats for their animals very seriously and this was a very effective group project that hung in our room for a long time.
