Crown Preschool Students Learn about Lions & Tigers & Bears...Oh My!
Crown Preschool teachers Miss Lindsey and Miss Brenna developed a new theme for the week around zoo animals. The children were fascinated by the zoo and animals, becoming familiar with the names, needs, and homes of many zoo animals. They learned that elephants, giraffes, monkeys, snakes, lions, zebras, and bears are some of the many animals that live at the zoo. They also learned that zoo keepers give food and water to the animals and veterinarians are doctors who care for animals.
One day they released ladybugs into Crown Preschool's garden. The children were excited to see the ladybugs go to work on finding the pests who were eating their plants. The children even found a fuzzy caterpillar!
To develop observation skills, parents are encouraged to show their child pictures of zoo animals from books or magazines, and to plan a family trip to the San Diego Zoo or Safari Park. Many opportunities for learning present themselves at the zoo. Children can actually see different kinds of animals and many times, such as at petting zoos, are able to touch and feed them. What a great way to develop an appreciation and respect for animal life!
