Trip to the zoo.
"My favorite thing at the zoo was seeing the animal we adopted. It is a snow leopard. It's name was China. It's original name was Dong Dong. The zoo did not like that name so they changed it. The snow leopard was from China. They usually never get cold. They usually feed it a blood popsicle. That is nasty to me, but not to the snow leopard. They can wrap their tail around them to keep warm. That is cool, sooooo cool!" - Kylie
"When I went to the zoo my favorite thing was when I saw baby George cuddling with his parents. It was so adorable." - Elise
"When I went to the zoo my favorite animal was a zebra because they have amazing stripes and blend in well." - Keri
"When I went to the zoo on Thursday my group went to see the Otters. They were the best animal I've seen since I went last year. It was very hot, it was about 97 degrees." -DeAjunay
"My favorite animal is the elephant. Because it is a big animal, and when it gets dirty it is orange. It looks like an orange elephant! It looks funny. I like elephants."

What is your New Year's resolution?

"My New Year's resolution is to make better grades in school. To get more compliments. And have better behavior. Respect grown ups better." -Keri Bell
