Study rainforest animals with this research and writing project. Students can document their learning with writing and pictures as they study, research, and observe animals. Included in this research-creation are class charts, writing activities, and labeling activities.

There are 12 different animals included:

• Sloth
• Capybara
• Macaw
• Poison Dart Frog 
• Toucan 
• Piranhas 
• Anteaters
• Iguanas 
• Boa Constrictors 
• Jaguars 
• Goliath Beetles 
• Orangutans

Each animal contains the same activities:

• KWL/schema charts
• can/have/need charts
• look/live/eat charts
• fact writing pages
• a writing page
• labeling activity

All chart labels and recording sheets are included. 

You or your class can choose which animal to research, or you can assign an animal to a student or group of students. All of the research journal pages can be copied and made into a journal or used individually.
