Biomes Project Reflection
Find three recent news articles that specifically impact your biome and read them. Examples of this could be an industrial project, a nutrient spill, an endangered species designation, or some other impact. A link must be provided for each article, as well as a short summary. This must be done individually and posted here
On Monday, your group must be ready to present your Linoit or Pinterest to the class. You will have a 3-5 minute presentation, so you should spent some time as a group figuring out how that will go.

Chapter 2 Notes
Once again, we turn to the textbook online in Chapter 4. Here, however, we are asking ourselves: What visuals matter and how are they connected. You must create at least one (or more) visual for each section, culminating in a large poster that details the basics of
- biomes
- energy flow
- ecosystems
- food webs
- carbon cycle
- water cycle
- nitrogen cycle
- population control
