Ms. Addington’s class had an amazing day at the zoo! 🐾🌍 We “traveled” through different continents and explored all kinds of animals while learning about their unique adaptations. From desert survivors to rainforest climbers, our students were so excited to discover how each animal is built for its environment. Such a fun and memorable day of learning! 🦁🦒
