Group Size:

Entire class

Resources:

• Rainforest Sounds in our Rainforest Multimedia area - the tracks were recorded in the rainforests of South America and include insects, frogs, birds and monkeys.

Activity: 

Play a game of guess that rainforest sound with audio clips.

You can play sounds over each other to get a true idea of what rainforests really sound like.  Some of them are very strange.  Does a howler monkey really sound like a cow with a sore throat?  Mix the sounds up and ask children and adults to guess!
