The Climate/Biome Project _________________________
Purpose: Identify
biomes based on environmental/climate factors and native organisms.
General Guidelines: Each
student pair will research biotic and abiotic factors of a chosen biome. The
presentation will be through PowerPoint, a travel brochure that attracts
visitors to this biome, and a diorama/model or poster
Instructions: Colorful
pictures and graphics should be used throughout the project. Creativity and
neatness count! Your project should include the following information:
1. Biome’s place on earth
Where is it (geographical
distribution)? List w/pics and map
What is the topography,
elevation, and latitude of the region? List 3 w/pics
What are 3 native plants and
their adaptations to live there? List 3 w/pics
What are 3 native animals and

important? Any resources from this Biome?
6. Include a reference page and identify references on each slide
