Lesson (Grades K-2): Protecting Africa's Wildlife

http://www.nationalgeographic.com/xpeditions/lessons/14/gk2/africawildlife.html

In this National Geographic Xpeditions lesson, students will consider how people affect the natural environment in their home area and in Africa. They will learn about two African habitats (the savanna and the rain forest) and some of the animals that live there, and focus on how cheetahs and chimpanzees make use of their habitats. Students will conclude by creating posters to encourage people to protect the savanna and the rain forest, as well as the animals in the area where they live
