Be sure to check materials for grades just below and just above yours. They may be appropriate for your students.

 

Activities for grades 2-6 are short articles on rainforest animals with question sets. They provide good exercise in reading comprehension, but their main purpose is to teach science concepts at appropriate grade levels. You may prefer to use question sets as study guides (have students answer them as they read) rather than as quizzes. National science standards are listed for each activity.
