Zoo Explorers WebQuest

Introduction

Welcome, little explorers! Today, we are going on a virtual field trip to the zoo. You’ll learn about different zoo animals, hear the sounds they make, and play fun online games—all on your device!

Task

Your online mission:

  • Learn about at least 5 zoo animals

  • Listen to their sounds

By the end, you’ll be a Zoo Animal Expert!

➡️ “What zoo animals do you already know?”
