In this lesson, students are required to communicate and present the needs of different animals by using their observations of different pictures. With the formal, summative assessment associated with this lesson, students communicate their findings of observation by independently participating in Where Animals Meet Their Needs. This is an activity in which the student will pick one of the three animals discussed in the lesson (penguin, chimpanzee, or dolphin), brainstorm its needs in the “planning box” provided, glue the picture of that animal on his/her paper and draw the animals’ natural habitat around that animal. The students will need to label the needs within the picture he/she draws (i.e. water, air, bugs, fish, trees, etc.) This will be assessed according to the Where Animals Meet Their Needs Rubric. The student must receive a 5 on the assessment rubric. The teacher will collect the assignment to guide further instruction.
