My Project

Cute and cuddly, exotic colors, intense camouflage, terrifying teeth... we want it all!

In our Montessori classroom, we do both Continent and Biomes studies over the Elementary years, and students are always wondering which animals live where.

Students will use these books to travel to all seven continents and explore the wide variety of animals that Earth has to offer. They will create posters, books, dioramas, models, and so much more. Students love to compare and contrast continents, look for evolutionary patterns in the Tree of Life, and discover animals they have never heard of!
