Friday, 9/16

September16

All worksheets are on my desk.

  1.  You will use the World Climates map on page 10 to complete the 9 questions on the World climate worksheet
  2.   You will use the World biomes map on page 70 to complete the 10 questions on the World Ecosystems/Biomes worksheet.  ***Ecosystems and Biomes are referring to the same thing***
  3.   On a separate sheet of paper, draw the vegetation found in each different biome that is on the map.  You may use the book or your chromebook to look up the vegetation.

***Use the map above for the biomes pictures.  That means you will need to research what type of vegetation is in each of the 8 biomes and draw one picture for each.  So you will only have 8 pictures total.  This is a great website to help with what to draw:  kids.nceas.ucsb.edu

4th period:

Instead of number 3, complete the 4 climate zones worksheet using pages 70-72.

***These will be due on Monday when you enter the classroom***
