Learning Journey to the Singapore Zoo

On 15 July, our class went on a learning journey to the Singapore Zoo. The students learned about animals in their English lessons. We just finished reading the Big Book "Tall, Short, Big or Small" so the visit was very timely. They were also required to complete a Mathematics Performance Task at the zoo. For this task they were required to work as a group to:

1) Collect and organise data on the zoo animals
2) Create their own animal picture graph

When they returned to class, they interpreted the data based on their picture graphs.
Besides seeing and learning about the many zoo animals, the children were also delighted by the seal's performance at the "Splash Safari" show. We want to say a big "Thank You" to Halim's mother for taking the time off to come along with us as a parent volunteer. She was a great help.

It was a tiring day as we did a lot of walking but it was a fun and memorable day of learning outdoors.
