Introduction

You are requested to be in a search. You will be traveling around the world to take notes about the habitats in which bears live. At the airport the hostess will provide you with all your needed stuff to complete the journey. Choose your destination, and dress appropriately for the place; I want you to catch notes not illness.

Put your seat belts on and pay attention to the guide because he will introduce you to the fascinating world of Bears. Bears are interest creatures that look alike but their environment makes them different. Bears have a big and heavy body; their extremities are thick, short and powerful. They also have a short tail; eyes are less developed than their sense of smell. You must look through the window but don’t feed them! They look cool, but they are wild and strong.

Task

Select a partner because you will fly in group of two. One of the members will be the reporter of a TV news and the other one the writer of a news paper. Your employers selected you two to work in a group to construct a well-constructed report of the bear’s wild life. They let you two select the bear you want to study and prepare your assignments.

Process

In groups of two you need to first; select a bear you are interested to address in its habitat. Then you need to read about it, taking notes about its characteristics, where we could find it and cool things about it. Finally you will report to the class about your journey and what you learned about that kind of bear.

The report should be in power point or use any visual aid and  have a copy for the teacher. Be creative.

What do I need to look for? Look for the bear's scientific name, characteristics, localization, habitat, diet, what difficultly of their survivor and any other information that makes your report interesting.
