 Piney Woods:  Located in East Texas  Many tall pine trees  Has only natural lake in Texas; Caddo Lake  Gulf Coast Praires:  Along Coast of Texas  Houston is located here  Warm & wet weather

 Edwards Plateau/ Llano Uplift  Grassland with tough soil  Small plants grow here  Over farming in past caused the dirt to be eroded away.  High Plains  Mixture between desert & grasslands  Elevation is much higher than most of Texas so they receive the most snow in the state.

 Trans Pecos  Desert region in Texas  Located in West Texas  Lowest rain of all of Texas

 Research the average rainfall for your region.  Research the average temperature for your region.  Research three facts about your ecoregion.  Prepare a rap/song/play or poem to present the information for your ecoregion tomorrow.
