Animal Research

As we've studied informational text this week students have become animal researchers. We learned about the different animal groups and now students are hunting through books to find information about one group's characteristics, food, habitat, and other facts. The main focus for this project is learning to use informational text-features to learn new information, and practicing research skills. We will continue to deepen our understanding of both of these skills in the next step where we research and write about one kind of animal.
