Teachers Frequently Asked Questions: 

 

Q: Do we come to you or do you come to us?
A: "We bring the zoo to you" It makes a wonderful less expensive In-house field trip.

 

Q: Which grade level do you recommend?
A: All grade levels from preschool through Jr. high. Our age demographic is 3 through 12 years of age. It is absolutely ideal for K through 5th.

 

Q: Can you do more than 1 classroom at a time?
A: The ideal party experience would involve a single class of approximately 20 students, as having fewer students allows for a more hands-on experience. While it is possible to add an additional class, bringing the total to a maximum of 40 students, teachers must be willing to assist with exotic animals to help expedite the program.

 

Q: Where can we do the show at our school? ​

A: Over the years I've done shows in the classroom (we may need to move desks) in the school gymnasium (as long as no other activity is occurring) in the library, or in an open foyer. I have the children sit in a large single file (so I'm not teaching over anyone) circle or horseshoe shape to facilitate the passing of animals - no tables or chairs are necessary. It is much easier and gives us more time if we stay in one location or classroom.

 

Q: Will you travel out of the Charlotte Area?

A: We will go wherever we are called, however, a travel fee may apply.
