Biomes and Ecosystems


We are currently studying biomes and ecosystems in 5th grade and discussed the human role in habitat destruction. It has been successful in getting the children to think about what they can personally change to help preserve our ecosystems. A follow-up question to keep the students thinking: If you could bring any creature back from extinction, what would you choose and why? What effect would it have on the world? This serves to reinforce food webs/chains and the relationships between the living and non-living things in the environment.
