Amazon rainforest foldout lapbook project

Do you need a fun and hands-on way for your students to organise their research and learning around the Amazon rainforest? This interactive printable lapbook is full of templates to help children explore the animals, plants, and features of the Amazon.

Use this resource over several lessons to support science and geography at upper KS1 or lower KS2. The individual components can be used as centres, for homework, or as a consolidation of a habitats or Amazon rainforest topic.

There is no set way to present the lapbook - just choose the components you want to use based on the size of the card/folder you are using to make it, and the options available.

This resource contains:

• Cover page, plus smaller ‘Amazon Rainforest’ title labels.
• Layers of the rainforest flipbook with cut and stick, or fill in the description options.
• Plants and animals of the rainforest activities (either fill in fact cards to place in pockets, or make a petal foldout of Amazon plants).
• Rainforest geography flipbook - children write about the location, climate, and features of the rainforest.
• Anaconda food chain foldable sequencing activity.
• Blue morpho butterfly life cycle foldable sequencing activity.
• Lift the flap writing prompts.
• Assembly notes with photos.
• Teacher notes.

Please note, there will be an element of basic research required for some of the activities. Research notes and links are not provided.

US and UK paper sizes are provided. This resource is 30 pages.
