Our visit to the Muséum

The Indian Elephant, named Elephas indicus by Georges Cuvier

We had a great morning at the Muséum. Here are some pictures:


Here we are talking about the whale skeleton:

When we got back we had a little time to write some haiku poems about the things we'd seen in the museum:

Such sweet animals!
So many gorgeous creatures!
Very nice to sketch!

Cristina and Maëlle

Cute as a teddy,
As stripy as a tiger,
Black, white like pandas.

Claudia

The adventurers!
We went to the Muséum
And Jardin des Plantes.

Gustavo, Tino and Matias

Glistenning amber,
Tails swishing from side to side
Genets on the move.

Sanika and Mimi

Fennec foxes live
In the Sahara Desert;
They are very cute.

Ryan

Staring animals,
Silent, sad and unmoving:
Makes me very scared.

Niamh

White as a snowflake,
Big dark black eye on the face,
Long fragile whiskers.

Maria

I went through a room,
We saw what humans have made;
It was beautiful!

Vega

As shiny as gems,
As sharp as forty knives steel knives
As big a ball.

Aksh

A huge elephant,
Stomping and chomping the grass;
So strong yet gentle.

Jesse

The rabbit jumps high,
The rabbit runs very fast,
The rabbit is big.

Sara

Elephant stands still,
It stands there sad all day long.
I think it is cruel.

Niamh

Big, strong and furry
With straight-like ears and long horns,
Light hooves on the ground.

Irene

Stones very shiny
Stones glimmering in the light.
Why are they still here?

Luis

Sharp golden eyes,
Watching me curiously.
Looks like it is real...

Abi

Swooping through the air,
It's going to eat us!
Quick, help us from here!

Rozenn and Penny

It's grey like the floor,
It's huge like an animal,
A big elephant!

Fernando and David

Eyes staring at me.
It was some stuffed animals.
It was a bit sad.

Maia

An enormous whale,
Bones covering the ceiling.
Whales are different.

Pablo and Alicia

Yellow seems like gold,
or maybe it IS golden!
Shiny, beautiful!
