Pen Pals
Create a pen pal kit. Better yet - create 2. Keep one and send one to a friend. It doesn't matter how far the friend lives, we all love receiving mail!
Be an Anthropologist
Pretend you are in the rainforest searching for a lost tribe. Create a diary of a video about your expedition. What clues are you finding, how do they provide evidence of the people you are searching for.
It's Circus Time!
Grab a few friends, and put on a show. Think of great acts, dress up in costumes, and share your talents with family and friends. Everyone loves a circus!
What Would Judy Moody Do?
Judy Moody lives life full of passion and does everything over the top. Judy keeps receiving emails from Amy about the rainforest and the environmental concerns there. Judy wants to help out. The trees are disappearing, animals don't have a home, and the people who live in the rainforest are having to move. What would Judy do? What would you do? This may take some research and hard work, but I know you can do it!
