Description

Creature Feature Archive features information about a wide range of animals for grades K-8. It provides factual information about animals through photographs, video clips, audio clips, and maps.

After students have had a chance to explore the site, ask them to choose one attribute by which they will create one group of animals (animals that have four legs, can fly, live in cold environments, etc.). Students can access the various options of Creature Feature Archive to gather their information, and then write a report about their animal group.
