Ecosystems & Habitats Wheel
Ecosystems are perfect research territory: distinct, vivid, and full of connections to draw. Spin for a biome — rainforest, coral reef, desert — and have students map its food web, list its adaptations, or build a diorama. The wheel divides them fairly so a class covers the whole planet between them. Edit the list to the habitats your unit includes.

Ecosystems & Habitats Wheel questions
What task works well with this?
Food webs, adaptations, and dioramas all fit. Spin to assign the habitat, then set the same task for every group so their projects compare directly.
Can I add a local habitat?
Yes — edit the entries to include a nearby park, river, or coastline, which makes the ecology real and lets students do first-hand observation.
