In the book, The Great Kapok Tree, the author mentions many different creatures that live in the Amazon rainforest. Pick one of the creatures (listed in another post) and use NetTrekker to find information about that animal or insect. You will be incorporating this information into a PhotoStory. You will need to find out some facts about the creature:
1. What is this creature (mammal, insect, amphibian, reptile)
2. Is this creature a producer, consumer, or decomposer?
3. Where in the rainforest does this animal live? (understory, canopy, emergent)
4. What does this creature eat?
5. What eats this creature?
6. Where does this animal fit in the food chain? What would happen to the food chain if this creature no longer existed?
You will also need several pictures for the PhotoStory. (At least five.) They can be of this creature, its young, the foods it eats, their habitat, or their predators.
You will also draw a picture of the food chain your creature is a part of. You will scan this and include it in your PhotoStory. You can also use PowerPoint to create the food chain. Save it as a jpg for inclusion in the PhotoStory.
