Share fun facts about 25 unusual animals with your students. Creature Features uses humor, illustrations, and a question-and-answer format to explain the good reasons for each animal's odd features. Students will listen to the teacher read the book aloud, extend vocabulary, participate in class discussion and activities, and complete individual writing projects. The activities in this educator's guide are aligned with Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts.
