IN CLASS:
- Objective: SWBAT use any/all resources available to begin planning their particular ESLP project with their teammates
- Warm-up: Take out your climate diagram assignment and wait for directions
- Notebook checks start today Friday--leave in basket
- Work on ESLP [45]
- Monday is last day to turn in LATE Ecology Field Day assignments (it’s worth 73 points).
ESLP:
- Work on proposals OR join a team (last day)
- Start/update team LOGS* on Google Drive
- Agree
on a tentative basic plan for your team’s project--this will become the
basis for your detailed plan, your timeline, and your budget(s)
- Research
the materials you think you will need to complete your project. Some
questions you should ask for each type of item you plan to acquire:
Where can we get this? Does it have to be new? What is the price range
for this thing?
HOMEWORK: Work on project plans

IN CLASS:
- Objective: SWBAT use climate data to accurately produce a climate diagram (a.k.a. “climatogram” or “climograph”) and to make reasonable predictions about the characteristics of a biome
- Warm-up: What is precipitation? Give examples. What is temperature? What units are used to measure these quantities? How do temperature and precipitation generally determine what a particular ecosystem/biome looks like?
- Discuss climate, climate diagrams, and how to make one [20]
- Create two climate diagram on your own (climate diagram handout) [20]
HOMEWORK: Finish climate diagram
