Today at school [I'm currently student teaching] I went to the zoo. We didn't go to the Phoenix Zoo, but the World Wildlife Zoo. It took almost an hour to get there--it's way out in Litchfield park, I mean who even goes out there? To be honest, it's a sad city the zoo aside.
My mentor teacher and I took 4 of the most rambunctious boys in the class so that none of the parents had to. They were actually pretty well behaved all things considered.
Even though I was a chapparone and my primary obligation was watching after 4 boys, I enjoyed it. I saw really cool animals up close, rode a cable car over the whole park, and got to feed a manta ray!

I didn't take this picture, but I did get to see a white tiger like this--it was probably his cousin or brother...All in all it was a good trip. I even used a Camelback for the first time. I was 100% hydrated all day long!

Yay for student teaching! Did any of the tigers try and pee on you or did the people armed with trash can lids save you?
Wow! Lindsey is back from the (blogging) dead. Glade you had fun.

I hope you're aware that you probably shouldn't be putting pictures of your students on a public online blog. (Just so you don't get any lawsuits or anything of that manner). Just to be safe. :)
Wildlife Zoo, I didn't even know we had such a thing but since it is in litchfield park I don't feel too bad.
