Create a Terrarium or Aquarium (Real) for extra credit.

Create a Terrarium or Aquarium (Real) for extra credit.
Worth 100 points


Be sure to tell/explain all of the details (food, animals, plants etc.)

Background:

The terrarium and aquarium are microcosms of the natural world, recreated in clear glass or plastic.

Both terrariums and aquariums typically have a rectangular shape, but they can be virtually any shape.

The basic difference between a terrarium and aquarium is water. An aquarium is filled with water and contains fish and other aquatic life. A terrarium, on the other hand, may contain some water, but it is generally not filled with water. Terrariums typically have soil, rocks, and plants and are built for terrestrial life like snakes, lizards, and frogs.

You have to research and really make it a learning experience for everyone! You will have to teach the class?
You do NOT have to go buy anything.  Be creative, get some snails, ants, plants, ladybugs etc.

Due February 9, 2011.
