Bring ecosystems and biomes to life with this Ecosystems & Biomes Mobile Project! This hands-on activity engages students as they create a hanging mobile representing various ecosystems, from deserts and grasslands to coral reefs and estuaries. Perfect for upper elementary grades, this resource allows students to review key concepts while incorporating art and creativity into science. With three different mobile options and terminology that fits any district’s needs, this interdisciplinary activity is ideal for meeting Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

- 4-ESS2-2: Analyze and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
- 5-ESS2-1: Develop a model to describe interactions between Earth’s systems (biosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and atmosphere).
