Dear Students,

The guide for the zoo is uploadead as an jpg format. Please print it and take it to school on monday, remember who ever does not have the guide will not go.


VISIT TO THE ZOO


Dear parents and Students,

On Monday we´re going to the zoo!!!!!! The idea is that we have fun classifying different animals, but in a responsible way. It is also important that you know you must work during the visit. First of all these are the rules of the game.
THINGS TO TAKE
1. A snack (you must eat it before entering the zoo)
2. Sun block (Remember your are going to be exposed to sunlight for quite a long time)
3. A cap
4. Biology Notebook
5. Pen and pencil
6. Camera
7. Money to buy drinks inside
8. A bag not so heavy is a good idea; It will make the visit more comfortable.
You are not allowed to take any MP3 devices please leave them at school; the bus will not leave until we are sure you don’t have them.
THINGS TO REMEMBER
1. Don’t through garbage on the floor
2. Walk instead of run
3. Stay on the paths
4. Stay with your group during the whole visit
5. Your phone must be in silence after you enter the zoo
6. Animals at the zoo have special diets, DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS; if you do this you are risking their health.
7. DO NOT PICK PLANTS OR FLOWERS
8. DO NOT THROUGH ANY KIND OF OBJECTS TO THE ANIMALS
9. Try to keep your voice down; the noisier you are the less behaviors you´ll observe.
10. Keep your hands, body and objects away from animal enclosures.
11. Use your sight wisely, so you can answer the worksheet.
