Second graders are beginning the first steps in learning the research process as a group study. We are beginning our in depth study by taking notes together and summarizing. Your child may gather any information about the rain forests and utilize the download pages we are completing in class. Feel free to print out or send to school any information you feel would enhance our studies. I encourage you to research at home, and please bring your findings to class!

Evaluate some of the problems the Rain Forest faces. Bring your results into class.

Complete the activities using the food chain mapping paper. Bring your results to class and share!

Discuss the reading with your child, since it is high level. Ask your child what threats do the Rain Forests face today? What are the solutions to these problems? You might want to write your child's findings down and they can bring them to class and share.

WE ARE DECIDING ON VARIOUS ACTIVITIES FROM THIS WEBSITE. KIDS BRAINSTORMED HOW WE COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE BY EDUCATING OTHERS, WHILE SAVING SOME LAND IN THE RAIN FORESTS. YOU MAY GET SOME IDEAS FROM THE SITE IN ORDER TO CREATE YOUR REQUIRED PRODUCT AT HOME.
