The Foxglove Saves the Day

Welcome Friends and Family!

Below is a video of our reader's theater called Foxglove Saves the Day. Once we each did a lot of research on our rainforest topics, our group got together and discussed what information we each wanted to add into the script. Next, we used a story map to figure out a good rainforest tale that would include each member's research. After a lot of hard work and a little laughter we came up with this adventurous story. Once you watch the video please feel free to comment on something you learned or enjoyed about the show.

Sit back, relax, and get ready to learn!

We hoped you learned a lot about the foxglove plant, chameleon, red eyed tree frog and the sloth.

Be sure to catch us next time on Turn To Two.

Sincerely,

Emilia, Ethan, Laney and Anthony

Hello Friends and Family,

Trey and Natasha are here to share about our topics. We are both learning about animals that live in the rainforest. Trey is researching the orangutan and Natasha is studying the tapir.

Natasha thinks it is a cool fact that the tapirs look like watermelons with legs.

Trey found out that orangutans hold a leaf over their head when it rains.

Our animals are both endangered. This means that they are becoming extinct.
Here are some ways you can help...

1. Don't cut down trees from the rainforest. If you do, please plant new ones.
2. Don't hunt endangered species for fur, food or money.
3. Give money to people who are helping the rainforest.

Do you have any other ideas on how we can help the rainforest? Let us know!
We hope you are liking our blog and learning more about the rainforest.
See you next time!
Natasha and Trey
