Introduction
How much do you know about wild animals?
In this webquest we will learn some things about them.
Task
You will work in grpus of 4, so you have to work with you classmates and distribute the work.
The task you are going to do is to create an oral presentation about some selected animals and then to present it in front of the class.
1. You will get 4 animals per group and you will collect information for each of them.
2. Each member of the group will study a different animal but... REMEMBER!
In the final presentation all members of the group must know about all the animals beacuse the classmates can ask any questions.
3. After looking for the information of each animal you must compare them with the others.
Process
1. Look for information and make a file for each animal. Here you have the fields you have to complete:
- Name.
- Image.
- The place where the animal lives.
- What does he eat?
- Has it fur? Feathers?
You must look for that information in the following links:
