About This Product

Raccoons | Engaging Science Lesson This informative Microsoft PowerPoint slideshow helps middle school science teachers cover key details about raccoons through an interactive digital lesson. Students start by watching a video introducing basic facts, then read or listen to a passage that explains raccoon behavior, habitat, diet and more. The resource includes reading comprehension questions, a close reading activity focused on analyzing the passage in depth, and a quick prompt for students to summarize key points. Using varied formats like video, audio and writing tasks, the self-contained lesson keeps classes engaged while building science literacy around this familiar North American mammal. Teachers can assign it to individuals, small groups or the whole class as a supplemental component when studying wildlife or zoology.
