Look here to find selected Internet sites to use for your animal research project.
Project Description
Students will research at least one animal in small groups using the Internet. You will work in small groups to provide “expert” information back to your animal group to be used in their final presentation. You will be assigned to mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects, or fish. Expert groups will include:
1. Appearance
2. Habitat
3. Adaptations
4. Fun Facts
You will then put the information you gather into a presentation to show the rest of the class! Get ready for some great Internet researching fun!
