 Forests are biomes in which trees are the main life-form, but what makes a forest deciduous? In this informative program, students will explore these colorful woodlands that change with the seasons. Students will learn about the many different types of plants and animals that inhabit both the temperate and tropical deciduous forests, while a hands-on investigation about leaves and their pigments is examined through a process called chromatography. One of eight volumes in the Biomes of the World in Action Video Series in the Schlessinger Science Library. Part of the Schlessinger Science Library in Action Collection. This title is based on the concepts outlined in the National Science Education Standards for Life Science: structure & function in living systems, reproduction & heredity, regulation & behavior, populations & ecosystems, and diversity & adaptations of organisms. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online. |
"The pace...will hold students attention...women are shown in non-traditional roles. The material is accurate and current, and presented in a logical manner. The visuals are excellent...a great addition to school library collections."- School Library Journal
