All You Have To Do Is Care
2009
This project addresses the essential question of how humans and animals live together harmoniously. Our focus is on basic pet care, most popular pets, endangered species, animal abuse, and environmental threats. By addressing these issues we believe other children will understand how to make the world a safe and healthy place for the variety of animal species that live here.

Team Collaboration
We worked together to create our wonderful website. We made a plan for our website and wrote all of the projects on it. Then we followed the plan until we were done with the website.
In order to make it easier to complete the website, we divided our tasks. Two of the team members are good editors so they did most of the editing. One team member, who is a good artist made the banner for the main page. Another team member was a picture finder and helped to find information for everyone.
One of the problems we had was losing two of our team members after we had been working for over a month. After they left our group, we had to remove their work from our site and divide up their topics between the rest of us. We rose to the occasion by writing more reports and working harder to create our wonderful website.
Team Diversity
Our backgrounds are very similar so we worked extra hard to use diverse resources. For example, we decided to investigate pets found around the world so there would be information that people from many different countries would find interesting. We also looked at animal abuse from a general viewpoint. We purposely wrote about endangered animals that are found all over the globe. Lastly, we included threats to animals from many different regions of the world.
