Lions, and Tigers, and Cougars, oh my!

Saturday English School had a great week on Saturday, learning all about the big cats of the world. After we had a fantastic, educational breakfast activity with our partner, ICHS, VFA students spent an hour learning about a specific big cat. Next, students prepared a presentation to their classmates about their cat. Cougars, Jaguars, Lions, Bengal Tigers, and Cheetahs were the stars of the day, with students giving maps, drawings, and expert characterization to their animals.
