Introduction
Welcome to Forest Research!
We are going to become scientific researchers through this Webquest. Remember to be a good teammate, research your part well, and do your best!
Task
With your teams, you are researching the forest habitat and its relationship to our world. Please click on the tabs at the top of the page in order as you go through this WebQuest to complete your task.
Once you have found and recorded all of the answers to your research questions, create a plan with your team for how your research will be presented. It could be a poster, PowerPoint, or trifold presentation-- your choice!
