The North Carolina Zoo brought a "Classroom Zoo to You EDventure" to the students in the Hospital School on Thursday. The students were invited to examine the skulls of various animals and guess the identity. Sounds of the animals were played as they were identified. The largest skull was from a polar bear and the smallest was a hummingbird. What did the students learn? "The most interesting things I learned is about the gorilla skull." "The crocodile holds her eggs in her mouth to protect them." I learned about alligators, elephant teeth, hummingbirds, and monkeys." "Owl's ear holes are symmetrical." And a great time was had by all, thanks to Academic Troubadours, a new program funded by promise grant from the N.C.Children’s Promise, the fundraising arm of N.C. Children’s Hospital.
