You will create a nonfiction booklet to pass out to your campers to keep them informed of animals located in the region. Use the links below to help. You will begin with the Peregrine Falcon. Each time a new animal is introduced in the story you will need to add it to your booklet. Use the student sheet to record your findings. Please include at least 5 animals. Be creative in how you want to set up your booklet. The pages of your booklet will be added to the Survival Guide. Check the Evaluation page for your rubric.
