SCIENCE PROJECT - INFORMATION SEARCH

To create the habitat for your project, you will need to get information about the most important parts in it:

• What kind of place is it? Find information about the climate and areas where you can find it. Is there water? is there rain?
• What types of animals live there? vertebrates and invertebrates
• What kind of plants?
• Non living things: sand, soil, rocks, water, caves, etc.

Here are some links to start looking for the information:
