Give your bio-dome plenty of light (energy source) and monitor the moisture content. Light can be the sun or artificial.

Advanced Option: An eco-column / aqua terra column / bottle biology. Bottom w/o top No Top or Bottom No Bottom and inverted No Bottom Teacher will cut bottles as it’s dangerous and assign groups. Students will assemble column, add specimens (pond water and forest soil work best), inventory, make structurally secure using clear tape. Water weekly, and monitor health.

Activity! If the class gets any of the next three question incorrect… You will be forced to watch the most annoying video about biotic and abiotic factors ever created. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4u5Lo979Rkc
