You will use real photos, pictures from the Internet and pictures you draw to illustrate these Ohio animals. With a group, you will choose one Ohio animal and research this animal with classroom books and the Internet creating a web about your animal research. With your research, your group will write about how your animal survives during two different seasons in Ohio and create a Venn diagram. You will use classroom books, Ranger Rick magazine and these websites to research your animal.

You will choose two Ohio seasons and describe how the animal survives and adapts during these seasons, creating a Venn diagram to compare and contrast these changes.
