St. Mary Catholic School: The World is a Zoo

Kamala Bergeron of St. Mary Catholic School in League City purchased a “smart board,” laptop and animal books for her second-graders to study habitats and animal life.

“I have incorporated the technology into everything I teach,” Bergeron said. “We will create a living zoo with the students picking an animal and imitating the sounds and movements of their animal.”
