For this assessment activity, I have chosen Grade 9 Social Sciences with a focus on
Geography. The topic is "Climate Zones and Biomes."
1.2. The Purpose of Doing the Assessment Activity (2x1) (2)
The purpose of this assessment activity is to evaluate students' understanding of
different climate zones and biomes, including their characteristics, distribution, and
the impact of climate on ecosystems. It aims to assess students' ability to apply
geographical knowledge to real-world contexts, and to enhance their research and
presentation skills.
1.3. Describe the Assessment Task or Activity (3x1) (3)
The assessment task involves a group project where students create a poster
presentation on a specific biome of their choice (e.g., tropical rainforest, desert,
tundra). The poster must include:
A map showing the biome's location.
Key features of the biome (climate, flora, fauna).
The impact of climate change on this biome.
Solutions or conservation strategies.
Students will work in groups of four. Each group will research their assigned biome
using both digital and print resources and then design a visually engaging poster that
communicates their findings clearly.
