Each 30-minute lesson will include:

  • Introduction to the Letter of the Day
  • Visual representations of animals at the Zoo that start with the letter
  • Fun facts and interesting information about that animal
  • Meet our resident animals, in this case Maisie and Chester at the Animal Rescue Conservation Center

Interactive content might include:

  • Animal Movements and Stretches that participants can try at home
  • Animal science that participants can do at home along with the presenter

After Each Lesson

Registered families will receive a thank you email, with a quick survey link for participation feedback, and a PDF of an art/science activity they can do at home to extend the lesson about the letter and animal of the day.
