9:45 (A) or 12:45 (B):
Arrival in the Naturalia Room
Your introduction to the Biodôme's ecosystems will be held in the Naturalia Room, on level 100 (B1). A nature interpreter will be waiting for you at the agreed time, and there will be games specially designed for your group. We strongly encourage you to help those of your group who have the weakest reading skills, either by pairing them with more experienced readers or by increasing the number of instructors accompanying the group. The Naturalia Room is a "hands-on" experience. Visitors can touch mounted animals and plants and examine some of them more closely with magnifying glasses. At the end of the activity, each participant will receive an "Alpha-Biodôme" booklet.
11:15 (A) or 14:15 (B):
Self-guided tour of the ecosystem (without accompanying interpreters)
Participants will visit the ecosystems, using the "Alpha-Biodôme" book, a visual questionnaire that will help them observe the animal and plant life around them and build on what they learned in the previous activity. It is up to the instructors and participants to decide how best to use this booklet.
