1. Biome Coloring Book Names: Period: Draw a small picture of Earth

2. Directions 1. Use page 417 of the Biology book and color code the biomes of the world (pg3 of this guide) 2. Use page 418-428 of your book to draw pictures of each biome, describe average temperature and precipitation, abiotic factors, dominant plants, dominant wildlife, and geographic distribution (where you find the biomes). 3. Table 12-1 on pp. 418 may help you for all biomes rain and temp.
