Kindergartners can learn while exploring the Rainforest.
We explored the Rainforest in many ways:
Reading fiction/non-fiction books
Examining real/and kinda real rainforest creatures
Watching science movies and clips
Experimenting with water/temperature and erosion
Listening to natural sounds from the region
Many, many hands on projects and experiences!
Some of the things that we learned were:
Rainforests have 4 levels.
It rains twice a day and that rain affects the weather all over the world!
There are tons of animals there, many we haven’t discovered yet.
Animals protect themselves in many ways: camouflage, skin covering, etc.
We use many products from the rainforest: food, medicine, wood, etc.
The rainforests are important and must be protected!
