Lions, Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

 
 
 
After learning about wild and domesticated animals, Gan Daled listened to "Carnival of the Animals" by Camille Saint-Saens. Saint-Saens is a French composer who lived about 150 years ago.

Although he was a serious composer, Saint Saens wrote "Carnival of the Animals" using animals instead of people. The children had a wonderful time dramatizing different animals to the music. Some of the students can identify the animals represented by the music.
