on Zoo. They had a wild dayout! Almost everyone had a favorite animal. But they were almost all different!Many people liked soft, furry animals like pandas. Some peopleliked funny animals like monkeys which jump around and play with each other.But almost every animal was somebody’s favorite – even the snake!
The trip to the zoo was for study, as well as a day out. But Class 1didn’t go there to learn about science, they were there for an art lesson!Their art teacher, Mr. Hall, takes the class on a trip to the zoo every year.
“It’s good for the students to get out of the classroom and do art,” hesaid. “It helps them see that you can draw and sketch anything, anywhere. Many students do their best work on thistrip.”
The trip gave Class 1 something else to talk about. They argued aboutwhether zoos were cruel. The zooanimals were from all around the world. How could they all be comfortable? Howcould they be happy fenced in andwatched by lots of people? What do you think? What did Class 1 think? One ofour reporters is in Class 1 and she interviewedtwo students while she was there.
