Biodiversity Project - Due October 22nd
Students have received the outline for the final Biodiversity project and will require a bristol board for the final product.
They are to research thier species at home/school and bring in all thier work into the classroom where they will put it all together. The students can use the outline as a checklist to make sure that they have all the components that they need. There is room for creativity and I have encouraged the students to let thier creative juices flow.
A sample was shown and demonstrated in class for greater clarification. The project will be due October 22nd.
Have fun.
