Engage your students with studying the incredible animals of the world!

From a newborn puppy in New York to a Giant Panda in Beijing, animals come in many shapes and sizes. Despite the fact that over 1 million animals exist, we're sure your students will have no trouble choosing one :)

This resource guides students through the process of conducting their own research report on an animal. First, students choose an animal to study and learn how to properly conduct research. Next, students showcase their learning by creating a poster board, presentation board, PowerPoint, or dodecahedron. Afterwards, students present their projects to the class and self-assess their achievement. To help students choose a research topic (and to introduce the project to the class) we have included a PowerPoint that features the Top 10 Research Topics.

Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy in which students are challenged to actively learn about a subject for an extended period of time. It is a form of active learning or inquiry-based learning. Project-Based Learning is in contrast to paper-based, rote memorization, or teacher-led instruction that presents established facts. Please be aware of what you are purchasing.
