Central Question: What are the different types of tropical forest and how are they shaped by different physical forces? Guiding Thought Question: What is it about forests that make them so mysterious and so ripe for storytelling about them? Today's Learning Objective: Students will examine the physical systems that have led to the creation of different types of forests in the tropical regions by discussing notes, and examining the role of species within the forests. |

I think that fact that its very covered up from birds eye view and looking in also the fairly diverse life that hides and are around

The types of forests and life they bring help to create special characteristics that define them compared to other forests (African Rain Forest for example)

forests, in a way, are so dense, covered, and cut off from everything else that it creates its own special and very diverse ecosystem. forests are secretive and people like secrets. Therefore, people like forests.

Forests have lots of cool sounds and shadows and stuff. There's also lots of animals that you can't see until they're very close because of underbrush.

The dense leaves of the forest tend to block out a ton of light making forests really dark and as many of the trees look similar its easy to get lost and confused. For example, The Black Forest in germany gets its name from the canopy of evergreens and is the inspiration for many german stories
