This document contains a powerpoint presentation created by three students - Andrea, Viry, and Jackie - about the deciduous forest ecosystem. It defines key terms like producers, consumers, and decomposers. It provides examples of different plants, animals, and fungi that fill these roles in the deciduous forest food web, including trees, berries, snakes, salamanders, deer, monkeys, mice, hawks, bears, and earthworms. Biographies of the three student authors are also included at the end.

20. These are the three
students that worked
as a group to be able
to make the power
point you just saw
possible.

21. I go to Eastside College Prep
and I am in 6th grade. I am 12
years old and my birthday is on
February 17,2000.I currently live
in Redwood City ,Ca. My
favorite subject in school is
language arts because I love/
enjoy writing. My favorite thing
to do outside of school is going
camping and enjoying some
time in the outdoors. When I
grow up I would like to be a CSI
but first I will need to learn in
school and give my best into
school so that I can get a good
career (CSI) in the future .

22. I attend Eastside Collage
Prepatory school and I love to
learn. I am 11 years old and my
birthday is on August 21, 2000. I
live in East Palo Alto and My
favorite subject is Social Studies
because I love history and to be
amazed of ancient things. My
favorite thing to do outside is to
go camping at the cost by the
sea, I like to feel the cool cold
water touch my feet. I also like to
hang out with my friends. When I
grow up I want to be a person who
delivers babies, or a baker/chief
and a mom. I want to have a nice
little family with two or three
kids. I’m a weird girl who loves to
laugh and be happy.

23. My name is Andrea and I am 11.
My day of birth was May 1 of the
year 2000. I attend Eastside
college Prep and live in the area
of East Palo Alto. My favorite
subject in school is math. I find
math interesting and to me it
seems there is so much of it you
cant get enough. When I grow
up I want to be fashionista that
designs clothes for
actress, actor, and simply just
famous people in the world. I
also find myself wanting to be a
person working in a big
company like Apple. This is me
and my dreams for the future.
