Fascinating Facts about Animals!

Return to Menu

You have plenty of resources to help you to complete your Journal as an animal of your choosing.  The public library, our school & classroom libraries, plus the following list of good animal-related websites to explore.  Remember, as you find out information about your chosen animal, take good notes, arranged by subtopic, because you will soon have to put yourself in the place of the animal, writing in 'your' journal. 

Here are sites I've already found and judged to be good for your use:
