Science Project: Children's Animal Book Due: November 20

It's time for another project in science. It's a children's book due on November 20th.

 Children’s Book

A publisher has contacted you to write a children’s book about an animal and how it is related to other organisms as well as how its physical characteristics allow it to survive in its habitat. The publisher has given you a specific animal to write about in your book. Your book should include the name of your animal, what animal group it belongs to, why it belongs to that group, what are some other animals that also belong to that group, what does your animal eat, what type of environment does it live in, etc. The book should include illustrations and words that first and second graders can understand. A scoring rubric is included so that you can determine if your book meets all of the standards. Your book should demonstrate your understanding of how organisms are classified. It should also demonstrate understanding of why living things are classified.
