The topic of our papers this week will be rainforests. The kids must find information on...
What is a rainforest?
Animals of the rainforest?
Humans living in rainforests?
Our students will have websites and videos that I will teach them how to read and pull information from. I am also providing them with a short non-fiction reading on rainforests they may also use as a resource.
Their goal is to read and pull out information for each sub-heading above. They will then take their notes and write their non-fiction reports.
