Narrative Summary:

Animals 2x2 provides young students with close and personal interaction with some common land and water animals.  Appropriate classroom habitats are established, and students learn to care for the animals.  In four activities, the animals come in pairs.  Students observe and care for one animal over time, and then they are introduced to another animal similar to the first but with differences in structure and behavior. The opportunities for observation, communication, and comparison are enhanced through this process.
