Activity: You are the new zoo keeper at the North Carolina Virtual Zoo. You are in charge of equipping the zoo with animals. The only catch is that this virtual zoo must be equipped with animal combinations. For example, one animal you may consider is the sealephant. A sealephant is a combination of a seal and an elephant.



Directions: 1. Open your word processing program and presentation or SMART Notebook program. 2. Make your combination animals by combining 2 (or more) animals. You will want to use your presentation or SMART Notebook program to do this. 3. Describe the parts of each animal your new animal possesses. You will need to use your word processing program or you can use your presentation and/or SMART Notebook to type in this information. 4. Explain where your animal lives naturally and what they eat. Who are their friends? Who are their enemies? What else do we need to know about your animal? 5. Make sure your zoo is fully equipped with many diverse animals. 6. Be creative! Just as our sealephant is combination of a land and a water dwelling animal, yours can be too. It's your zoo and can be filled with any mixture of animals you desire. 7. Make sure to cite your sources! 8. When you are finished, save your work to your Home folder and title it "Zoo".
