The students are using their knowledge of the animals they used in this lab and the information from the book and their research to create their own model of an animal in a habitat.

In class the next day, the students will have the oppurtunity to make the animal and their habitat out of a bunch of art supplies. There will be a worksheet that the students will take home to record their research on.ģ. They also have to find out what the animal looks like and how it uses camoflauge to survive. After the book, students will be given a certain animal and they must do research at home in order to decide what habitat they are in. Explain the importance of camouflage for many animals to survive.Ģ. Make sure to mention how many of the animals in the pictures are blending in with their surroundings.
