Move Like an Animal

Animals move in different ways. Some can walk, others fly, swim, crawl, or hop. These movements help them find food, protect themselves, and explore their surroundings. In this WebQuest, you will learn how to classify animals based on how they move and discover the importance of movement in their daily lives.

You will work in pairs or small groups to research, classify, and present animals according to their movements. Your final output will be a digital poster or short slideshow showing at least five animals and their type of movement (e.g., flying, walking, swimming, crawling, hopping).
