The students will learn by interacting with one another through discussion. First, the students will learn the background on animal colorings and how they are used for survival tools and why some animals use camouflage. Then, they will name wild animals on their own that are brightly colored or camouflaged. They will then create their own brightly colored wild animal. As a class we will then share our pictures and describe how the coloring on the animal would help it survive.
Learning Goals
Students will recognize and generalize that wildlife exists in many colors.
