Short Answer
1. What facts and characteristics can you list about the Amazon rainforest? Which countries does it run through? What kinds of people, plants, and animals live in this rainforest? Why is it central to our planet’s health?

The second and third listed resources are intended to broaden students’ understanding of the human history of this area of the world, to help them more fully identify with the current inhabitants of the rainforest.
