Animal presentation
Choose an animal and make a poster about your animal to present to your classmates ( debes utilizar folios para poder juntar vuestros trabajos en una libro común sobre animales)
1. The Animal's Name
2. Classification: Is it a mammal, fish,reptile, amphibian, bird, invertebrate, vertébrate, viviparous, oviparous, carnivore, omnivore, herbivore……..
3. What does your animal look like? How big is it? What shape is its body? What does an average one weigh? Does it have horns, antlers, fur, crests or claws? Describe the teeth, head, neck, tail, etc. How many legs does it have? Are its legs long or short? How many eyes and how many body parts does it have?
Draw a picture if you can or use a printed image.
4. How does your animal move (does it walk, fly, jump, etc.)? Is it slow-moving or fast-moving? Why is this important to its survival? For example, most fast-moving animals are fast so that they can catch dinner (like the cheetah) or avoid becoming dinner (like the deer).
5. What does your animal eat and how does it get its food? Is it an herbivore (plant eater), carnivore (animal eater), omnivore (eating other animals and plants), or something else? Is there something unusual in the way your animal eats? (For example, the flamingo sieves its food from mud while its head is upside down under the water.) Where is your animal in the food web (is it a top predator, like the grizzly bear, is it at the base of the food web, like krill, or is it somewhere in the middle)?
6. What type of biome does this animal prefer (does it live in the desert, swamp, tundra, deep sea, coral reef, tropical rainforest, pond, or other habitat)? Where in the world does it live? List the continent(s), country/countries, and/or smaller areas that it lives in.
7. What are the adaptations of your animal to its environment? For example, the giraffe's neck is an adaptation for obtaining leaves that are high off the ground. It also has tough lips to avoid thorns on its main food source.
8. Life Cycle/Reproduction: Give information on the animal's life cycle and reproduction. For example, in the case of insects, list and describe each stage in the process of their metamorphosis. For a species of shark, describe whether it bears live young or lays eggs.
9. Behavior: Describe interesting features of your animal's behavior. For example: Does it hibernate, or migrate in cold weather? Is it nocturnal (most active at night)?
10. Defense/Offense: How does it defend itself (and/or attack other animals)? Does it use teeth, fangs, claws, armor, horns, antlers, pincers, poison, a stinger, muscles, a strong smell, and/or something else?
11. Enemies: What animals eat or otherwise kill your animal? For example, for caterpillars, birds eat caterpillars.
12. Is this animal species in danger of extinction? If so, why? Has it lost habitat, lost a food source?
13. Something Special: Is there anything special about this animal? This can often be the best part of the report. For example, are there legends about the animal?
