Given a chromebook with access to Google Docs, students will be able to create a spreadsheet where information about the world biomes is recorded. In addition, students will be able to access a fictitious world map and appropriately apply various vegetation zones to the landmasses
Rationale: Understanding the origin/location of various vegetation types allows students to realize the impacts of the Columbian Exchange on their daily food intake.
Evidence: Being able to identify the various locations of where their food originated will support the concept of a globalized world and the role of trade.
