Animal Habitat Diorama Project
Our last project of the year will be for your child to build a 3D diorama. They have selected their animal and habitat in class and the information packet has been sent home. Your child will be doing research at school
their project, but they will need to complete the
report and diorama at home. The diorama will
need to include their animal and have an
accurate replication of their animal’s habitat.
Your child will need to complete the report in their
own handwriting and will need to do most of the work on the diorama.
