Fifth-graders at Vestavia Hills Elementary Central are studying biomes. As part of this science unit, students were asked to choose a biome: tundra, taiga (coniferous forest), desert, temperate forest, tropical rain forest or grassland. Students created a keynote presentation as well as a diorama. The dioramas were on display throughout the month of October. The entire fifth grade also attended Camp McDowell in the month of October and study temperate forests firsthand.
