Kids will explore the animals and plants that live in different ecosystems (e.g., desert, ocean, forest, prairie, etc). They will then design an animal or plant – based on its characteristics, they will decide which ecosystem it is best suited for (and which adaptations lend themselves to that ecosystem or what changes they might need to make for their creature to better survive).
