      Science - After learning about the interactions between both living and non-living elements in ecosystems, read about some of the world's biomes at this website:

      Choose one biome. Now choose one animal that lives in that biome. Write the animal you selected in the center of the paper. What elements (both living and non-living) are in this ecosystem? Draw these elements around the edge of your science sheet and connect them to your chosen animal with a line. Write the interactions on the lines going from your chosen animals to the other elements in this biome. 
      Bonus: Include lines between the other elements and how they interact together!
