Job 1
Look at the websites listed below to find five African
animals you would like to learn about. Write the names of
the animals on a piece of paper to help you remember your
choices.
Job 2
Now that you have your five choices study each animal
carefully. Look at pictures so you know what each animal
looks like. You will get a page
for the riddle book
from your teacher. Write the missing information into the
sentences. When you are done writing, draw a picture of the
animal on the back of the page. Don't forget to write the
animal's name by its picture.
Job 3
Read about the animals you chose for your riddle pages. How
tall are they? On a piece of paper, list each animal by
name, and write how tall it is. You will use the computer to
make a graph of the information you just found. Your teacher
will show you how to use the computer to build your graph.
When you are finished, print the graph to show your tour
group.
Job 4
The displays you see in museums teach you so much. You are
going to create a display to show one of your five animals
in its habitat. You will form the animal out of paintable
clay which your teacher has made from this
recipe.
While your animal is drying, you will make its habitat using
paper, glue, and paint. You may also want to add pebbles,
sticks and grass to make the habitat look more natural. This
display will help your tourists understand what they will
see on their safari.
Job
5
Talk to the
tourists. As they arrive, tell them about the five animals
they will see on your safari. Show them how to compare the
differences in size, and let them explore the displays of
the habitats. Read the riddle book to them, and find out
what they know about African animals. Be there to answer the
tour group's questions.
