This course is a short elective type 6 week course with 2 weeks given to finish the zoo project.

Given the age range of the class, parents are asked to help the students with some tasks along the way. 

Please look over the third party tools we will be using. Students will learn about animals using a variety of methods-YouTube videos, zoo websites, live animal cams, and virtual tours from Zoologists. 

If your child is interested in a specific zoo animal please let Mrs. Collins know. She will be happy to share any resources or images she has of that animal to encourage more curiosity into the field of Zoology.
