Please check out the novel- The Incredible Journey from the library.  Please use Stixy Board (create a new account for your group) to record your research on the following topics (use the website as well as research from books and the internet):
Labradors, Bull Terriers, Siamese Cats, Bears, Porcupines, Lynx, Beavers, Indian Legends, and the Canadian Wilderness.  Create a sticky note with information about each topic on your Stixy Board.  You may also include photos/images and also videos of the topics.  You must also include information from the novel about each topic listed.
After organizing your notes, you will be creating a presentation using ...an application of your choice.
