First Big School Project


Brad has completed his first science project.  They are studying different environments and animals that live in those environments.  Each child was to create a diorama of an animal in its habitat.  Brad chose the Sumatran Tiger.


The Sumatran Tiger is the smallest of all of the tigers and lives in the rain forest of Indonesia.  They have webbing between their toes so that they can swim better. 
Did you know that all tigers live near water?  All are swimmers and enjoy being in the water.  Did you know that tigers have more than 100 stripes each?

Brad wanted to have a waterfall present for his water feature in the rain forest.  Notice the wild boar that the tiger has captured???  It has red permanent marker on its neck for blood.


We had fun making this project.  I hope all are this enjoyable - ha!

Dioramas are sooo fun to make! I wish one of my teachers would give us an assignment to make a diorama.
