In this lesson, students choose an animal they would like to research. Once an animal is chosen, the students use various websites (such as PebbleGo) to learn about their animal. They take notes on the animal's appearance, diet, habitat and interesting facts. When finished researching, the students create a book in Wixie to share their findings.
This lesson was conducted with my first grade class over a consecutive four day period. To shorten the lesson, days one and two can be combined. I included day four as an "optional" lesson day.
