I clicked grade 4 science and then selected life systems. The first one to pop up of the 15 hits was called: Extreme Ostrich Makeover
It was great. I would use this activity or create my own for a different animal. I love the language because it really helps grade fours feel like they are junior learners now - it is clear that the expectations are higher.
I wouldn't use the whole site because I don't know how to help students create a power point presentation like the examples but I would use these ideas for kids to see how they could organize their project.
Now I'm off to read some more.

Great resource with video on how to create basic animations using Photoshop and Flash.

It's Maria again. I went back to grade four science life systems and found a few more lessons similar to the first one. They are all equally great. I will use of these. The additional lessons I really like are:
1. Imaginary Animals
2. I am Pond of You
3. Bugs Alive
I still haven't read the lessons on food chains.
