¡La vida en el desierto!

During this one time, one hour class, students will learn about  the Southwest deserts and their ecosystems. Students will learn about the animals that live in the desert and how they survive the extreme heat during the day and extreme cold at night. In addition, students will become familiar with plant life and land forms that are found in the desert.  Students will draw a desert scene and label the land forms, plants, and animals.  Background knowledge of desert plants and animals or food chains/webs is helpful but not a requirement. Learners will be monitored for understanding and guided while they create their desert drawing.
