Form a team with two other people. Everyone has to look at one website in each category. At the end of your investigation, you will have to come together and discuss ideas to use for the poster that will educate your community.

First, you will have to know a little bit about the rainforest. Collect some general facts about the rainforest and better understand the threats to the Amazon. Facts: [] [] [] Threats: []

You're going to have to search around to learn about the animals and what is being done that hurts them. [] [] []

You will also have to research about the plants that are being damaged and why this is a problem. [] [] []

The destruction of the rainforest also has a negative impact on the people of the Amazon. Look around to see what you can find out about what is happening to them. [] [] [] []

Finally, what can we do to help?!?! [] [|[[http://kids.mongabay.com/elementary/601.html]]] [|[[http://www.kidssavingtherainforest.org/studenthelp.php.htm]]] [|[[http://www.rainforest-alliance.org/programs/education/kids/fact-sheet.html]]] 

Now that you've taken a tour of the rainforest and you have seen what's really going on, it's time to head home and create a poster to educate your community about the Amazon threats and what they can do to help save the rainforest!
