Foods And Medicines From The Rainforest

These worksheets help students to explore the fruits, vegetables, medicines, and other everyday objects found in the rainforest. Students are presented with a list of items commonly found at home to highlight how resourceful the rainforest is, and they can try five of these themselves (fruits and nuts). The worksheets conclude with descriptions of the properties of medicine plants with the students having to link these to the recommended symptoms.

A range of individual and group activities are incorporated within this worksheet including food tasting, and annotating their thoughts and ideas.
