Welcome to the Wetlands Habitat!

You will be learning all about the wetlands during ocean month!

Choose one from the list above or ask your teacher if you have a different plant or animal you would like to research.

Research your animal. Use the website to help gather facts about your organism for your report. Create a essay on your animal about the habitat, physical descriptions, diet, adaptations and any other interesting facts. Use google docs to create your report. Don't forget to add your sources at the end of the report.
