Biomes and Climatograph Assignment
In this assignment you will be analyzing climate data from different locations in the State of Utah and classifying those locations as one of the 10 biomes we learned about in class. The locations you will be analyzing are: Logan, Manti, St. George, Ouray, Park City, and Salt Lake City.
I have already gathered the climate data for you. The climate data for the 6 locations listed above can be found at this link.
Link to climate data
For each of these 6 locations you will need to make a climate graph, like the ones you saw in the biomes video. You will make the climate graphs for Logan and for 2 of the 5 other locations using a computer and either Google Sheets or Excel.
Below are links for 2 videos that show you exactly how to make a climate graph using Google Sheets or Excel. (Sorry, I don't have a tutorial for how to use the worthless Apple program Numbers to make your climate graph as I have found Numbers to be as useless as bicycle is for a fish)
Link to Google Sheets Tutorial Video
Link to Excel Tutorial Video
After you have completed your climate graphs, send them to Bennett using either AirDrop or email them to me. Then analyze your climate graphs and decide which of the 10 biomes we studied best fits each of the 6 locations.
After you have decided which biome best fits each of the 6 locations, go to the quiz found at the following link and enter your results.

Semester 1 Make Up Packet
Below is a link for the Semester 1 make up packet. This packet was assigned in class on Jan 3rd and is due on Jan 13th NO LATER THAN 2:00PM NO EXCEPTIONS, because I have to have quarter 2 grades in by 3pm that day.
All of the same rules for study packets apply to the make up packet EXCEPT, students only need to score a 70% on the make up packet to get credit.
If a student passes the make up packet and their score is higher than a test or a study packet score from 2nd quarter, I will replace the score of the test or study packet they did worse on with score they received for the make up packet.
