Sc 7L virtual terrarium homework assignment

Hi Science 7L! Remember that your virtual terrarium assignments are due on Tuesday. Many of you finished your drawings today in class, but for those of you that didn't, here is a reminder of what to include in your representations:

- water
- oxygen (represented by 02 symbols)
- food
- energy
- some sort of shelter (for people, animals, plants, etc.)
- interactions between living and non-living things
- at least one plant and one animal

Once you have finished your drawings, write down a list of how you've represented each of the above points (ex: water = raindrops and lake formed from a stream coming down a mountain; energy = sun producing energy for a flower to grow, berries for humans and animals, etc.).

Leave a comment here if you have any questions about this over the weekend.

Hello to all band students! Please be sure to hand in your acknowledgment forms asap - they were due on September 4th and are now a full week overdue. If you haven't submitted yours, please bring it to me on Tuesday!
