  3. Learning Target • I can explain how abiotic and biotic factors interact to create the various biomes in North Carolina.

  4. Criteria for Success • I will identify biotic and abiotic factors. • I will be able to differentiate the 6 major earth biomes. • I will be able to explain to which biome North Carolina belongs • I will be able to explain why North Carolina belongs to that biome.

  5. DAY ONE

  6. Bell ringer activity • Break the following sets of words down using the prefix/suffix lists provided. You may work together in groups of two or three to determine what the words mean • Biosphere Biotic • Biome Abiotic • Biodiversity Deciduous
