Submission Required
Grading Required
Students review field notes and photos from a local native plant nursery, then sort what they noticed into categories: plant needs, animal needs, and people needs. Each team creates a chart paper evidence board with one possible schoolyard site, at least two matching native plants or habitat features, and a short explanation of why that site could become a better urban habitat. Teams share their board with the class and listen for questions that will help shape the next phase.
