Exercise

Form small groups of students (either teacher or student chosen). The students
are to sign up on the paper sent around by teacher as to which biome they will
explore. In the groups the students will designate who is to research each
topic within their biome. The topics can include characteristics of the biome
such as locations, rainfall and information about organisms that inhabit the
biome including physical characteristics, diet, and adaptations. The findings
should be collected and prepared in order to present to their classmates. Using
http://www.enchantedlearning.com the students are to scroll down to the
Enchanted Learning heading and click on Biomes in the center column. From there
they can select the biome they chose to explore and begin collecting
information.
