Process

Step 1 - Learn some animal vocabulary

Your teacher wants to make sure you know the meanings of some words related to animals.

mammal, reptile, fish, bird, invertebrate, habitat, food, life cycle, homes, enemies, prey, food chain,

 

 

 

Now go to Puzzlemaker and make a criss-cross puzzle using your new vocabulary words. (The number of squares should be width 15, height 15, and the square size should be 30.) Print out your puzzle and trade your puzzle with a classmate to see how well you know these snaky words.

Step 2 - Create a poster about the life cycle of an animal

Now it is time to learn about the life cycle of an animal.  As you learn about the life cycles,  write down ideas for your poster.

Create a poster that shows the life cycle of a snake. Make sure it covers all phases of its life and that your poster is colorful.

Step 3 - Create a model of the animal in its habitat.

 

 

Create a model of your animal in its habitat using a shoe box. You will need to find the necessary materials (rocks, grass, sand, leaves) to create a habitat where your animal could survive. Use clay or other materials to make a model of your animal. Paint it to look like your type of animal and put it in the habitat you created.

Step 4 - Make a feeding sign for your animal.

Make a feeding sign for your animal exhibit that tells what your snake eats. You can use a computer program like KidPix, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher, Print Shop to create your sign; or you can create one just using paper and crayons.

 

 

Step 5 - So why would anyone want save and protect this animal?

 Using the information you have learned so far, make a list of reasons this animal is important.
