Descovering the animals, climate and importance of the rain forest in our world.

Introduction

       Introduction

The rainforest is a home to many different plants and animals.  In fact,  more plants and animals live in the rainforest than anywhere else in the world.  Animals of all shapes, colors, and sizes live in the rainforest.

The rainforest is divided into four main layers:  the forest floor, the understory, the canopy, and the emergent layer.  Lots of different animals live in each layer.  If you visited the rainforest, it would be impossible to see all the animals hiding in each layer. 

Let's take a journey into the rainforest and play "Hide and Seek."
