Using RZSS resources on different animal diets and habitats, students can create a food web for a specific ecosystem. Have them research how human activities, like deforestation or pollution, impact this food web. After researching an animal from the RZSS resources, students can create a mock conservation campaign, with slogans, images, and facts about why that animal needs protection. Students watch live animal webcams RZSS provides, like those featuring pandas, penguins, or tigers. They can take notes on the animals' behavior, movements, and interactions over a period using a resource such as Book Creator, reviewed here. Have students explore the RZSS virtual tours, videos, and animal fact sheets to learn about endangered species. They can then choose an animal and create a conservation poster to educate classmates about its habitat, threats, and conservation status.
