Last week we went to the Bronx Zoo for a rainy, yet fun end-of-the-year field trip. We were two feet away from a giant crocodile, we saw lemurs, flamingoes, and more! We were enthralled by all the animals and didn't even seem to mind the rain. Don't worry, it wasn't all fun and games. When we got back to school the next day, we did some critical thinking and jotted down in an argumentative writing style about the function of zoos and whether or not they have a positive impact on society. We realize that while zoos have great conservation efforts and educate the public, we also wish that the animals could have the chance to roam free in the wild. Don't look now but there is a huge crocodile behind them! An assortment of fourth graders and sea lions. We got to watch the sea lion feeding! It was pretty cool seeing a bald eagle, the symbol of America, after a year of learning about American history. He was a lot bigger in person, too! We had different approaches to dealing with the rain... What a demonstration of kindness! So proud to see this.
