Make Your Own Zoo!!

Animals of the Continents

1st grade with assistance

 

The local zoo has been having trouble attracting visitors to their exhibits.  They have tried everything from having half priced food on the weekends to opening free afternoon penguin shows to the public, but they just can’t seem to attract enough visitors.  After much thought and research, the zoo has finally decided that an exhibit with animals from each continent would be the key to attracting enough visitors to keep the zoo from closing.

 

Challenge:

Your mission is to travel around the world and find one animal from each of the seven continents that would attract visitors to the zoo.  Once you have found the animal write down:

 

ü  The name of the animal

ü  What continent it is from

ü  An interesting fact about the animal or the continent that may interest zoo guests
