HOW DO LIVING THINGS DEPEND ON THEIR ENVIRONMENT?

Ms. Baca’s 6th Grade Class

Science and Writing

Have you ever wondered what it is like to be in other parts of the world?  During the third quarter our class will be working in cooperative groups to research biomes using the Internet and a variety of reference books.  Our goal is to develop a deeper understanding of each biome and to develop research, writing and technology skills.  As part of this process, we will identify an environmental concern that affects an endangered animal in each biome.  The Unit will end with a presentation to younger students incorporating a PowerPoint to illustrate what we have learned.
