Please read our disclaimer. A lesson plan designed for intermediate to junior high students.
Students research a rainforest animal and present a report to classmates.
In this webquest activity, primary students have the task of finding out more about 5 animals from the rainforest, drawing one of the animals, finding and taping animal sounds, and learning more on what can be done to protect the rainforest. Two specific objectives are to describe the major factors that shape biomes and to represent the connections between the factors that determine biome development and plant and animal life. Information and links are to resources about the rainforest cacao plant. A Teacher's Guide is available. This link is to the ETE home page since it gives the easiest access to necessary introductory and teacher information.
