Create a "foldable" that covers the following:
- Protists (txtbk 334)
- Fungi (txtbk 344)
- Plants (txtbk 362)
- Animals (txtbk 410)
Each "fold" will cover the following:
- Define each kingdom
- Examples of each major phyla within the kingdom
- Define the phylum
- illustrate with drawings or photos
- Cover two or three classes
- Define
- Examples with illustrations
- Cover three or four Orders/Families/Genus/species
- Start with a species and work backward to complete the definition
- Illustrate with a written explanation
