Material Required: Pictures, Books
Presentation: ● Fresh water habitats come in a variety of forms. ● Lakes, rivers and wet lands are three different types of the fresh water biome. Lakes are bodies of standing water. When the lakes are so large we call them seas. Not all lakes are fresh water lakes. ● Rivers are bodies of flowing water that usually exit into oceans or seas. Head water is where a river originates. ● Lake Baikal is the world's deepest lake. ● Nile River of Africa is the longest river on earth. ● Wet lands are areas of land not far from lakes, rivers or coast lines that have slow moving (or) standing water covering them. If a wet land is near a sea, it is salt water wet land; otherwise it is a fresh water wet land. Usually wet lands are not much deeper. Two well known wet lands are swamps and marshes. We can find frogs, snakes, snails, dragon flies, crocodiles, alligators, turtles, flamingos and fish etc.
