Rain forest Tour
Rain forest Tour
On November 25th, the Grade 1-2’s invited their parents in to participate in a
simulated tour through the rainforest, which was set up in our classroom. The kids
created models of all the animals we studied in our unit, and helped me create
a rainforest canopy, and river in our room. We strategically placed the animals,
turned off the lights (rainforests are dark), and played a rainforest soundtrack to
help with the simulation. The kids carried flashlights while touring their parents
around the room. Afterwards, they were asked to sit down with their parents and
go through a “King of the Rainforest” Questionnaire (which was really a study
guide).
