Hi All!
Race the Wild: Savanna Showdown is
the last book in the Kristin Earhart ecosystem series. Similar to the other
books in this series, this book delivers ecosystem and animal interactions in a
great way.
This book series is most appropriate
for students in grades 2 – 4. A brief overview of this last book includes the last leg of
the four-leg race. The Red team continues its journey through the African
Savanna. The team comes across many different animal species but also shows an
inner conflict amongst the characters. This story is great to use for character
development and problem/solution.
The main ideas students can take
away are:
1.
The greatest migration on
land.
2.
The African Savanna food
chain interaction.
3.
Wildlife facts on the
aardvark, cheetah, leopard, giraffe, termite, wildebeest, Nile crocodile, and
more!
4.
Ngorongoro Crater and how it
supports life in the savanna.
This book is worth the read and I
highly recommend this series. If you are interested I did complete a literature
unit on this book as well as the others. The literature unit focuses on
comprehension, character traits and development, fact journals, maps,
persuasive writing, and more.
These are some pics from the unit.
