a Problem-Based Learning Project about Biomes

worksheet - doc or pdf

Step 2 - What do you need to find out about biomes?

(Working in a group? Put the initials of the person assigned to find the fact/info)

1. What is a biome?

2. List the biomes you missed in Step 1.
(You need to have all the biomes listed so you can divide the research between them.)

3. What info about individual biomes is important to choosing one for your town?

Keep in mind - As you collect facts, rate each one's value to your community.
Ask yourself - Is this fact a positive or a negative?

 

Go get the facts. Each team member should be looking up one biome. Look for similar important facts.

It will help organization if you made a worksheet with all the facts to find in a list.
Distribute the worksheet to each member.
Remember to write down who is looking for each fact.

Next complete Step 3 – Make a decision using a decision matrix. Which biome is the best choice for your town?
