A Visit to the Zoo

Our first Storytime of the year was a WILD one.  We all went to the Saint Andrews Zoo!





Monkey see, monkey do
Little monkey at the zoo
Monkey, monkey in the tree
Can you read some books with me?



The kids all loved the stories we read.  We had a great time making animal noises!  Everyone's favorite was Good Night, Gorilla.  With minimal text, the kids were able to help tell the story themselves.  Those silly animals tried to sleep in the zookeeper's bedroom!



Five little monkeys sitting in a tree
Teasing Mr. Crocodile, "You can't catch me!"
Along comes the crocodile, quiet as can be
And SNAPS that monkey right out of the tree!

Watch out, monkeys!


After storytime week was over, the classes had a chance to go back to the zoo to care for the animals as zookeepers and veterinarians.  









Taking care of a zoo is hard work.  It's also a lot of fun!
