South Miami Senior High School

In January we visited Miami MetroZoo. The weather was wonderful, and the students enjoyed the outdoors. We were all especially excited about the new experience available at the zoo. For a couple of dollars, people can feed the giraffes. Some of our students were a bit hesitant, but with some help, they all fed the giraffes. It gave them an opportunity to see an animal up close and personal. Where would they ever be able to see giraffe "eye to eye". Don't miss this great opportunity. In class we spent time learning about the animals we would see, and prepared all the manipulatives, worksheets, pictures. For a great resource/unit check out www.learningpage.com. You can find math worksheets, reading and writing for our students of all functioning levels.
