¿Como Esta Formado Un Bosque? (What Makes Up a Forest?)

Translated into Spanish, this lesson enables learners to use observation to understand that forests are made up of three layers that have different organisms and physical characteristics.

Learners explore forest layers (the canopy, the understory, and the forest floor) and record observations on cards. Then each learner draws one of the layers on a strip of paper. Finally, the class combines all the drawings to create a layered forest gallery, and learners share about what they observed.
