If any students have visited a rainforest, ask them to talk about their experiences. • Say the rhyme with the actions for the class. Additional activities/information • Share the following information and rhymes with the class. • If you visited the Daintree tropical rainforest, you would see huge trees growing high above your head. Their branches overlap to form a canopy over the trees and ferns, which grow below. Daintree trees Grow so tall We cannot see Their tops at all. • Say the rhyme for the class and have the children improvise the actions. • The Daintree is a deep green forest of giant trees, tangled thickets and woody vines that twist and twine; but somehow sunshine finds its way down to the ground so you can walk through the forest safely. Between the leaves And shadows too The dappled sunshine Filters through. • Say the rhyme for the class and have the students improvise the actions. • The Daintree is moist and misty. Everywhere, droplets of water drip from the tips of leaves. • The class claps the beat while saying the rhyme. • The class says the rhyme with the actions. Little drips Drip and drip And drip and drip and drop Big drips Drip and drip And drip and drip and pl-op. • Say the rhyme for the class and have the students improvise the actions. • When we visit the Daintree tropical rainforest, we should remember . . . Be gentle with Each branch and stone It could be Some small creature’s home. ©R.I.C.
