Meet an Animal
- Grades: 3K - 12
- Time: 30 minutes
- Fee: $100 (NYC) / $150 (Non-NYC)
Give your students an opportunity for an up-close encounter with live animals in one of our zoo classrooms! During this 30-minute experience, students will practice observation, questioning, and inquiry as our expert educator engages your students with curriculum-focused science content. The following discussion themes are available: Adaptations, Animal Diversity, Habitats, or Endangered Species.
Please note that Endangered Wildlife is designed for students in Grade 3 and above.
This program includes an experience with two of our classroom-appropriate ambassador animals. Examples of animals that your students might meet include: small reptiles (turtle, snake, lizard), small birds (dove, small owl), small mammals (hedgehog, armadillo), or invertebrates. Due to high program demand, we are unable to accommodate requests for specific animals.
