This month is science #7

       This week in science, we were placed in groups to create a power point on Google docs. Each member in the group had to create at least 2-3 slides about the Hawaiian tropical rain-forest. For example some of the slides would be the location, landforms, climate and animals that live in the rain-forest. Each member had to pick a different animal and do like a food chain. We also create a slide for the before and after climate. In 100,00 years we said that the Hawaiian tropical rain-forest will be cold. Then we had to draw an imaginary animal that we think will live in the after climate. Then we organize the slide, and wrote speaker note for each slide because we had to create a screen cast.
     This week in science, I learned what a biome is. A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat. Another thing I learned was how to make a screen cast, that was a ha-ha moment for my group :). Also, I learned that about the different types of animals that can be found in the Hawaiian Tropical Rain-forest. My group worked very well together because we chose one person to speak for the screen cast and everyone did their slide. I learned that there's more than one rain-forest in Hawaii.
This is a flower that can be found in the Hawaiian Tropical Rain-Forest.
