Take your animal research project to the next level with this informative writing prompt and animal habitat project. Students will research animals to write a habitat report. Students will record their findings about animals on various note catchers and graphic organizers.

What is This Animal Research Project?

Students will research information about different animals that all live in the same habitats and record findings. Students will then edit their notes and compile them into a book on a certain animal habitat that they researched. Students can pick between many different animal habitats, and can do their research online on for free at National Geographic Kids or can use books that you check out from the library.

Animal Research Project Teaching Length:

This writing project can be spanned across an entire month, or is easily modified to be a one week activity. The animal habitat project includes planning, drafting, editing, publishing and rubric pages that are all aligned with the common core.
