Biome Book Final Project
Biome Book Final Project
Book Description: So far this semester we’ve learned some complex ideas about key concepts in Biology. In
order to improve your own mastery of Chapters 3-4 and help other students learn about biomes, you will create
an informational book about a California biome. You will research information for your biome using the
internet in order to include key details and images. However, you also must explain the material in a voice a
non-biology student could understand.
What to do:
1. Create an informational book covering a specific California biome using Book Creator. The book must
have the following elements:
a. Include a cover page with your biome’s name, your name, + an illustration on your biome
b. Have 10 pages following the specific list for each page of biome book
c. Include accurate, informative, scientific explanations of your biome w/ key vocabulary from
Ch.3-4
d. Maintain a scientific focus but in an appropriate voice for non-biology students
e. Type information using appropriate spelling and grammar
f. Include neat, colorful, and appropriate illustrations to accompany your book
2. Use the checklist on page 2 to ensure you complete every page correctly.
• All illustrations are purposefully chosen and support the content on each specific page (10)
Illustrations
(20 pts) • All illustrations are neat, colorful, hand-drawn using Canva (etc.) and/or images documented from the
