The
Rainforest
Question:
Why do you think it is called a rainforest?
Where are the Rainforests?
Rainforests can be found on the continents of South America, Africa,
Asia and Australia. Rainforests are always around the earth’s equator.
The largest one is the Amazon Rainforest in South America.
Question:
On what continents can you find rainforests?
Weather in the Rainforests
Because rainforests are near the Earth’s equator, the temperature
is
hot- about 80°. It rains a lot, almost 6 inches a month- it rains
almost everyday! It is because of the rain and high temperature that
the plants grow so much.
Question:
What is the weather like in a rainforest?
Animals Of The Rain Forest
Sloth
Orangutan
Jaguar
AnteaterToucan
Poison Dart Frog
The rainforest is home to many species of animals and insects. Some of them
live in the trees, some on the ground and some just fly around.
Blue Morpho
Butterfly
Blue Bug
Question:
Which animals live in the rainforest?
Plants Of The Rain Forest
Laelia tenebrosa
Clavillia Strangler Fig
The rainforests has many plants. Because of the warm temperature and
the amount of rain, vegetation is lush- plants grow big and thick. There are
very tall trees and smaller bushes.
Layers of the Rainforest
EMERGENT LAYER
The tallest trees are the emergent layer. There is a lot of
sunlight there. Animals found there are eagles, monkeys,
bats and butterflies.
CANOPY LAYER
This layer is full of leaves and branches.  Many animals
live in this area since there is a lot of food. Animals that live
there are snakes, toucans and treefrogs.
UNDERSTORY LAYER
Very little sunshine reaches this area so the plants have to grow
larger leaves get sunlight. Many animals live here including
jaguars, red-eyed tree frogs and leopards.  A lot of bugs live
here.
FOREST FLOOR
It's very dark down here.  Almost no plants grow in this area. 
Giant anteaters live in this layer.
The People Of The Rainforests
There are tribes of people that still live in the rainforests. They get their
food from plants and animals in the forest.
Major Rainforest regions
African rainforest
Approximately 9% of Africa’s land mass
rainfall is relatively low
deforested and has become savanna
relatively impoverished- areas are
somewhat dry with stressful alternating dry
and wet seasons
African rainforest
Secondary forest-subject to intense
human pressure (had been cut down in
the past)
Four forest zones in Africa:
Guinea forest
recent origin on the west coast
Nigerian Forest
Cameroon-Gabon rainforest
Congo forest
which is by far the largest
Indo-Malayan region (South
and Southeast Asia)
highly mountainous and insular, with an
intensely humid and hot climate
Not subjected to much human pressure in
the past
Two main areas:
WESTERN PORTION
BORNEO
MALAYA
INDONESIA
SOUTHERN
THAILAND
•BURMA
•CAMBODIA
•VIETNAM
•LAOS
EASTERN PORTION
NEW GUINEA
SOLOMON
ISLANDS
NORTHEASTERN
AUSTRALIA
PHILIPPINES
Western
Asia contain
a variety
types of
forest:
•Lowland
•Highland
•Swamp
•Peat
APO ISLAND, DUMAGUETE
NEOTROPICSCENTRAL
AMERICA
SOUTHERN AMERICA
AMAZON RAINFOREST
Are Rainforests Essential? Why?
because millions of animals and people live there, many products including
foods and medicines come from the rainforests and rainforests affect Earth’s
climate

  • 4. Question: On what continents can you find rainforests?
  • 5. Weather in the Rainforests Because rainforests are near the Earth’s equator, the temperature is hot- about 80°. It rains a lot, almost 6 inches a month- it rains almost everyday! It is because of the rain and high temperature that the plants grow so much.

  • 7. Animals Of The Rain Forest Sloth Orangutan Jaguar AnteaterToucan Poison Dart Frog The rainforest is home to many species of animals and insects. Some of them live in the trees, some on the ground and some just fly around. Blue Morpho Butterfly Blue Bug
  • 8. Question: Which animals live in the rainforest?
  • 9. Plants Of The Rain Forest Laelia tenebrosa Clavillia Strangler Fig The rainforests has many plants. Because of the warm temperature and the amount of rain, vegetation is lush- plants grow big and thick. There are very tall trees and smaller bushes.
  • 10. Layers of the Rainforest EMERGENT LAYER The tallest trees are the emergent layer. There is a lot of sunlight there. Animals found there are eagles, monkeys, bats and butterflies. CANOPY LAYER This layer is full of leaves and branches.  Many animals live in this area since there is a lot of food. Animals that live there are snakes, toucans and treefrogs. UNDERSTORY LAYER Very little sunshine reaches this area so the plants have to grow larger leaves get sunlight. Many animals live here including jaguars, red-eyed tree frogs and leopards.  A lot of bugs live here. FOREST FLOOR It's very dark down here.  Almost no plants grow in this area.  Giant anteaters live in this layer.
  • 11. The People Of The Rainforests There are tribes of people that still live in the rainforests. They get their food from plants and animals in the forest.
  • 13. African rainforest Approximately 9% of Africa’s land mass rainfall is relatively low deforested and has become savanna relatively impoverished- areas are somewhat dry with stressful alternating dry and wet seasons
  • 14. African rainforest Secondary forest-subject to intense human pressure (had been cut down in the past) Four forest zones in Africa:
  • 15. Guinea forest recent origin on the west coast
  • 18. Congo forest which is by far the largest
  • 19.
  • 20. Indo-Malayan region (South and Southeast Asia) highly mountainous and insular, with an intensely humid and hot climate Not subjected to much human pressure in the past Two main areas:
  • 22. Western Asia contain a variety types of forest: •Lowland •Highland •Swamp •Peat APO ISLAND, DUMAGUETE
  • 24.
  • 25. Are Rainforests Essential? Why? because millions of animals and people live there, many products including foods and medicines come from the rainforests and rainforests affect Earth’s climate

Editor's Notes

  1. western portion, consisting of Borneo, Malaya, and Indonesia (together forming Malesia), along with southern Thailand, Burma, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos, and the east, extending from New Guinea to the Solomon Islands and Northeastern Australia
  2. of western Asia contain a variety of types of forest – lowland, highland, swamp, and peat, with rich volcanic soils in some places (Java, for instance) and infertile soils in areas away from mountain chains and alluvial plains.
