Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Children and families in the community will learn many facts about animals in the zoo by virtually visiting them through the program. They may want to take a family trip to a zoo in the area and use local resources to learn more about their favorite animals. As a great combination of reading, learning, singing and dancing, the participants will come away from the program with many new areas to explore. Hopefully the community will have an interest in hosting more fun and educational family events like this in the future. Anecdotal responses will be collected.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Children in the community learned about their favorite zoo animals by taking the virtual trip to the zoo. Children were able to express themselves by dancing.
