Animal Research Recordings

I am so excited to finally post the Voki recordings my students created. They turned out really well and I can't wait to use the voki.com website again for future activities and projects. Each student orally recorded the information they wrote in their animal non-fiction books. Voki.com is extremely easy to use and this was my first experience using it. The kids had a great time!

Animal Research and Habitats

We have been working tirelessly on our animal research and habitats over the past month. We have finally completed our non-fiction books, habitats and voice recordings of our non-fiction books. I am very proud of all the hard work my students have put into each project. They are eager to share what they have learned with their friends and families.I used Amanda Tervoort's non-fiction writing project template from TPT to create the non-fiction books. I also used a website called Voki to create the voice recordings. They are quite funny and we enjoyed listening to each of the recordings.

Writing out the "good copy" of the non-fiction book!

The finished product! Each student chose a different animal.


We worked with a wonderful artist that helped us create a zoo incorporating all of the Manitoba animals researched.

We planned out where each animal should go in the zoo.

The monarch butterfly habitat!

The tundra swan habitat!

The Arctic fox habitat!

We put the zoo together! Looks FANTASTIC!!
