Second Grade Habitat Diorama Project

An American Education Week

Parent and Child Project

Come and join us on Wednesday, November 16th for an educational experience with your second grader!

WHAT’S THIS ABOUT?

We have been studying habitats.

Every second grader would like to use their knowledge to create a habitat diorama at school on Wednesday, November 16th , with their parents help. Each second grader is asked to gather all the materials they will need to successfully build a detailed Habitat diorama.

Please select one Habitat from these 6 choices for your diorama:

Forest

Rain forest

Tundra

Desert

Ocean

Pond

YOU WILL NEED:

1 shoebox

Paper or materials to cover the box that matches your Habitat choice

Crayons, markers, scissors, glue, pencil (use school supplies)

Animals or pictures of animals that live in your habitat

Index cards or writing paper

And anything else you may need(

TO DO:

1. Choose a habitat that interests you.

2. Collect all the materials that you will need to build it.

3. Draw or print pictures of plants and animals that live in your habitat to bring to school to glue on your diorama.

4. Read information about the habitat and record this information on paper or index cards.

Some information that you may like to write about could include things like:

What type of habitat it is?

Describe your habitat.

Name animals that live there, and what kind of food the animals find to eat in their habitat.

5. Bring all information and materials to school by

Friday, November 11th.

This will give us a few days to get organized before we see you to make this project.
