Read together
Come sit with me upon the veranda,
Let's explore the world of fauna!
From birds that sing and bugs that crawl,
To beasts that roam and trees so tall.
Did you know the Native Americans,
Lived in harmony with all these land plans?
They knew the secrets of the earth,
And how to honor its great worth.
A conservationist is someone who,
Helps protect the planet for me and you.
They work to keep our world so grand,
For all creatures, across this land.
A replica can be so much fun,
It lets us learn and interact as one.
A model of something we can see,
Helps us understand its mystery.
And finally, a naturalist,
Is someone who loves to learn and twist,
The ways of life, the creatures too,
And all the things that make us new.
So come with me and let's explore,
This world of ours, it has much in store.
We'll learn of fauna, Native ways,
Conservationists and replicas that amaze!
Talk about it
