My
Grandma, What Big Teeth You Have! - In the classroom, we’ll study several animal skulls and see what they
can tell us about what the animal would eat or how it gets
its food and more. Next, we’ll visit the African Savanna
and find some predators and their prey.
Who
am I? - In the classroom you and your
students will get up-close and personal with a variety
of animal pelts, try and figure out which animals the
skins belong to and learn some fun animal facts along
the way. Then go for a short safari to the African
Savanna. Reptiles - Is a snake slimy? Do all lizards have legs?
Have you ever looked inside a turtle shell? You and your
students will learn all about snakes, lizards and turtles
and meet one of our resident reptiles.
