Resource:Free Rainforest Audio Clips and Curriculum
Provider:The Prince's Rainforest Project for Schools
Summary:ClickScholar Julie Covey recommended this United Kingdom website, sponsored by the charitable Foundation of the Prince of Wales, that offers all kinds of free educational resources that raise awareness about the importance of rainforests and their role in stopping global climate change
Description:When you get to the site you'll land on the "Sounds of the Rainforest" page. You'll find all kinds of amazing audio clips that include:

*Magpie Jays at Sunrise
*Black Howler Monkeys
*A Cicada Chorus
*Frog Songs
*The Forest at Night
- and much more!

It was mesmerizing to listen to the clips and it's sure to inspire interest in learning more about the rainforest and its inhabitants. That's a good thing, because this website offers the resources you need to virtually explore the rainforest. Just click on "Getting Started" on the menu on the left side of the page. A new page opens listing a menu of educational options to enhance science and social studies curriculum. These are designed with classrooms in mind, but many can be tweaked for use at home. You'll find:

*Lesson and Activity Ideas
*Factsheets
*Competitions
*Games
*Coloring Sheets
*Multimedia Resources: photos, videos, and live webcams

The resources are for students ages 3-16 - and much of it will appeal to your whole family.
