In this group, students will learn amazing facts about animals. During class, students will view a slide presentation and short video clips. At the end of class, students will play a review game. Throughout each lesson, students will also participate in a laughter challenge as they hear different animal jokes. At the end of class, your child will be able to tell others interesting facts they have learned about the wild animal discussed in class. I look forward to teaching your students about wild animals: the good, the bad, and the disgusting. Week of Sept. 11 Elephant Week of Sept. 18 Owl Week of Sept. 25 Penguin Week of Oct. 2.
