Assignments & Handouts

Habitat Diorama Project
Students will be researching, planning, designing, and constructing a Manitoba animal habitat diorama over the next few weeks. The diorama project will be done at school, and is due November 15th. Although this is an "at school" assignment, students may work on aspects of the project at home. Students will need to use their classroom time efficiently to ensure their dioramas are completed on time.

Please review the project with your child. You can download a copy of the Animal Habitat assignment here.
