Students will build a three-dimensional model of a biome in a box using everyday materials. Included in the model should be representative examples of flora and fauna, and it should show the terrain (mountainous, flat, shoreline, etc.). The inside walls of the box should be decorated (painted, collaged with photos, etc.) Taped onto one side of the box should be a written description of all of the characteristics of the biome (elevation, precipitation levels, temperature, flora, fauna, special adaptations, etc.). Taped onto the other side of the box is a world map indicating (by color, outline, etc.) the locations of the biome. Students will present their model and describe its characteristics to the class.
