Exploring Saskatchewan Biomes

describe how biomes in Saskatchewan have changed since colonization by European settlers and the impact this has had on the original people
There will be two parts to this paper: a review of four Saskatchewan biomes; then either descriptions of how the land has changed since colonization for each of the four biomes , or a more detailed description of how the land has changed since colonization for one of the biomes. (You may wish to gather information before you decide.)

Your paper should include the following:

Introduction
The purpose of the Introduction is to give your readers some background information, and tell them in brief what you will be discussing in more detail in the body of the paper. You may wish to leave the Introduction until you have collected all your research material, or even until you have written the body of the paper. Suggested length: 350 words.

Body of the Paper – Part 1
The order is up to you, but you should cover these topics for the Prairie, Taiga, Boreal Shield and Boreal Plain biomes :

size, location in Saskatchewan, major communities, major water bodies
climate (temperature, wind, precipitation, photoperiod)
geography (landforms, soils, vegetation) and land use (e.g. farming, recreation)
plants and wildlife unique to the area*
any other interesting facts you find (optional)
suggested length: 500 words

*When you are writing about a species, use the common name (e.g. domestic cat) as well as the Latin name (e.g. Felis catus) upon first mention. Note that in the latter case, the first word is capitalized but the second is not, and both words are italicized. Thereafter, it is fine to refer to it using the common name.

Body of the Paper – Part 2

There are no specific facts or topics to cover for this part of the paper – it will depend on the research you do. Again, feel free to add any visual elements that illustrate the land changes and how these affected the first peoples of Canada. Suggested length: 500 words
