In tune with the seasons

Currently unavailable in English

Spring, summer, fall, winter… As the seasons roll by, the Laurentian Maple Forest awakens, flowers, bursts into blazing colour and then sinks back into slumber. As they explore the Biodôme forest, students will discover the close ties that exist between plants, animals and their surrounding environment. They’ll also become aware of the role they themselves play in this fragile balance.

Students explore a theme with a nature interpreter: background and environmental issues, discovery of a Biodôme ecosystem, observation record and possibilities for action. The activity ends with a self-guided tour of the other ecosystems and exhibition spaces.
