Rikki Tikki Research & Technology

Many people think that animals don't have important human qualities-such as kindness and sympathy.  The fictional character Rikki-tikki-tavi has these qualities in the story, but what about real animals?  This is your chance to find out something you have always wanted to know.  Using the website, encyclopedias, books, tv, documentaries etc.  pose a question and answer it based on the research that you do.  You may work by yourself, in partners or in a group of three.  Pose an essential question, use your research to answer it in a paragraph, create a poster board showing your research, pictures, question and answer.

Make sure you look at the link showing what your poster board should look like.
