Did you know...The Plains Bison is an American Buffalo?

I am so excited to share my latest creation with my only fans...my students. In anticipation for our research unit on endangered animals, I put together a digital story as an introduction.

Students will be picking one endangered animal from North America and researching their habitat, why they are endangered and how they can be saved. When creating this video I followed their note sheets and made sure I met all of the requirements that would be expected of them. I can't wait to see how their projects turn out!
