Standard: 

3.12. Evaluate engineered solutions to a problem created by environmental changes and any resulting impacts on the types and density of plant and animal populations living in the environment (e.g., replanting of sea oats in coastal areas due to destruction by hurricanes, creating property development restrictions in vacation areas to reduce displacement and loss of native animal populations).

Objective:

For students to gain a deeper understanding of what makes up a biome and the different types of diverse biomes in the world.

Directions:

Students were to choose a biome to research. While researching, students were to identify the diverse climate, plants, animals, locations, and facts of their biomes. Students then took their information and wrote it on different paper cutouts, where it was taped to string and a clothes hanger.

Guidelines: 

Students were given a rubric where they had a provide a detailed description of the biome's climate, at least five or more plants and animals that live in that biome, at least 3 fun facts, and all the continents their biome could be found in.
