Interactive+Biomes+Project

**Lesson or Project Description**
This Interactive Biomes Project is designed to actively involve 5th grade students in a 21st century project that covers a wide variety of Language Arts, Science, and Technology standards. This project utilizes a differentiated instructional approach that allow for students to be successful with not only the content, but also the problem solving and technology skills required. Students will be divided into groups of three, with each student in the group responsible for researching at one of three levels (basic, intermediate, or advanced) a given biome. The student responsible for the basic level of information will create a interactive PowerPoint show. The student responsible for the intermediate level of information will create a Google Earth Virtual Tour. The student responsible for the advanced level of information will create an iMovie project. All three projects for each Biome will then be displayed on a page of an interactive Wiki website that will allow for other 5th grade students to learn about each Biome and comment on the projects.
