  2. INTRODUCTION You are finally home from your exotic trip with the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin. He took you all around the world showing you amazing animals and their territory. You went from being Eskimos in the Polar Regions to running from Cheetahs in the Grasslands. Steve Irwin took you from one end of the earth to the other. What an exciting journey! When you thought you had enough, the Crocodile Hunter himself asked for a huge favor from YOU. He was extremely upset that you two were not able to get any film footage of the dangerous encounters you had with the animals in the different regions of the world. So....he would like for YOU to make a guide for future adventurers like yourself! HOME TASK PROCESS GRASSLAND RAIN POLAR EVALU CONCL TEACH INTRO CREDITS

  3. TASK I hope that you have your seatbelt on, because we can’t let the Crocodile Hunter down! He has asked for you to include certain information within the guide book. Mr. Irwin wants to make sure the future adventurers are well informed about what they may face during their adventure. He would like you to tell the adventurers about the different animals and their habitat. Even try to relate the animals with the area they inhabit. The Crocodile Hunter said if you were able to do all of this…well…you may be able to star in his next movie, “The Crocodile Hunter and His Cricky Partner.” HOME INTRO TASK PROCESS GRASSLAND RAIN POLAR EVALU CONCL TEACH CREDITS

You are to inform the adventurers of at least three animals in each region. The facts that you gather should include the following: the name ofan animal, the description of the area the animal inhabits, the name of the region, and how the animal survives in that region. You are to organize all of the information that you gather into a chart. The chart will enable you to easily transport the facts into your guidebook.
