First grade students at Town and Country Elementary recently engaged in a habitats project. In small groups, the students were asked to design a habitat for some new animals coming to their zoo. The groups chose an animal and did research to discover the individual needs of their animal. They then planned, designed and built their habitats, culminating in a public presentation with parents, teachers and friends in attendance.
