WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT?
Find some
photographs and/or drawings of animals and their Describe the characteristics of the parents and compare them to the characteristics of the young. List the things that the parents have to teach their children in order for the children to survive by themselves. Can't you just see it now? In the forest, there is a clearing with little benches. The mother deer is standing in front of the benches, and the fawns are sitting on the benches listening to the mother tell them how to find food by peeling the bark off of young trees! Or maybe the mama skunk is demonstrating the only defense they have - and she sprays, and all the children run to get away from the horrible scent! Well, how do the adults teach the young? Very few mama bears know how to read and write... Now, you have a scrap book with pictures of parent and young animals, and you have a list telling what the parents are called and what their young are called. You have another list that tells their characteristics. ---oOo--- For a bonus
(that means an extra treat) I will give you a list of the names of animals'
groups. Not everybody has this information. Not hardly anybody! This makes
you a member of a very exclusive society. I named my list "Multitudes."
