You can select from a wide range of potential contexts as the focus of learning or discuss the specific areas of knowledge or skills that your students need to develop, including:
- Habitats
- Behaviour
- Enrichment
- Adaptations
- Classification
- Role of the Zoo
- Role of Zoo keepers
- Endangered species
- Environmental Issues
- Conservation
The possibilities are endless, but here are some unit ideas that could be used, adapted or extended for your visit to Hamilton Zoo:
In order to best meet your needs and assist us in our planning we were wondering if you answer the following questions:
- What context/s did you plan as a focus?
- Do you have any specific learning outcomes?
- What key competencies, learning areas and achievement objectives would you be looking at?
- Is there anything that you haven't done but would be interested in doing at the Zoo or finding out about?
- What do you hope your students would get out of it?
- Any other suggestions?
