Learning: Our Wanderings About the Amazon Rain Forest in Brazil

This week, we had a KWL discussion about some of the non-human creatures we might find in the tropical rain forest around the 2016 Olympics city of Rio, Brazil...

Here is some of what we already know:
“It is in South America, in the same country as Rio, Brazil. There are anacondas - a huge snake - and piranhas in it. There are crocodiles, and poison frogs - they are blue and orange and red.” ~ Travis
“The proper name for a jungle is a rain forest.” ~ Sharlotte
“There is a type of big cat called a jaguar that lives in the Amazon.” ~ Aaliyah
“There is another cat called a puma that lives in South America.” `~ Ngatokoa

We look forward to sharing our independent research Google Slide efforts with you on our individual blogs later this term! :-)
