Panther Mystery Game

In this offline extension to the Florida Panther Net Mystery series, students use deductive reasoning to solve the case. Unlike the on-line mysteries, the Panther Mystery Board game has a different solution each time it is played. Students learn about animal tracks and other sign as well as about plants and other animals that share the panther's habitat.

Who Am I?

This game was developed as a substitute for the on-line Who Am I? and contains similar content in the form of clue cards and picture cards. Two teams play the game, and scores are kept. Because of programming difficulties, scores are not kept in the on-line game.

Animal Sign Concentration

In this classic card game, students match animals that share the Florida panther's habitat with pictures of their tracks on other sign. Younger students (grades 1-3) can use the symbols in the corner of each card to help match the cards, while older students can use the words on the cards to match them.
