What is a Rainforest?

An assignment based on an article from the "www.rainforestconcern.org" website.

This assignment contains a link to a flash movie presentation of the text.

This article explores many aspects of the rainforest: what it is, why it is valuable, and why we should preserve it.

This assignment is based on the QAR ("Question-Answer-Relationships") strategy for reading comprehension Raphael 1982, 1984).
There are four types of QAR: In the book (RIGHT THERE), In the book (THINK & SEARCH), In my head (ON MY OWN), In my head (AUTHOR & ME).
