A cherished Lower School tradition recently returned to Mr. Rocky’s Field—the annual Kindergarten Zoo! This year there were “new facts and a new class whose interests really shined through,” said Kindergarten Teacher Ms. Meghna Mathur. “We tell them that you become the teachers!” Kindergartners select an animal to research, create a report and detailed diorama to represent the animal’s habitat, and then share what they learned with visiting D-E families. Emilia L. ’38 told us that “baby giraffes are able to stand on their own within one hour,” Ryan P. ’38 revealed that “snow leopards like to live high up,” Ava K. ’38 noted that “jaguars can live in two different habitats,” Wylde W. ’38 shared that “eating shrimp makes flamingoes pink,” and Naya M. ’38 found that “emus can grow up to 6 feet tall and have soft feathers.” Great job to all our Kindergarten zookeepers!
