World Biomes

Task It is your job to research the biome and gather facts and information about each of the seven biomes. You will become an expert on several aspects of the biome. You will use the internet. As a follow up you may create a flyer or pamphlet that showcases each of your biomes as a vacation spot. Taiga (coniferous forest) Tundra Tropical rain forest Desert Temperate grassland (prairie) Savannah (also listed as grasslands on some sites) Temperate deciduous forest
