Our STEM day helped us to understand that living things can be divided into groups based upon their characteristics and environmental change and human activity affects different habitats differently.

We collected our research about each of the following habitats:

• Aquatic
• Forest
• Desert
• Tundra
• Grassland

We used information books and Planet Earth documentaries to record key facts about each biome.

Afterwards, we talked about our homes and what was needed to keep humans alive. The children then discussed how they would re-create suitable conditions for the animals to survive within their domes. We also talked about the life cycles of different animals. Our 3D biomes helped us to show a cross – section of each habitat.
