✅ Peer Review Method Gate

Teams present their question, hypothesis, variables, and data-logging system in a short protocol using their notebooks and observation board draft. Peers review 2 teams with a checklist focused on feasibility, evidence quality, repeated observations, and whether the method could support claims about food webs or disturbance ripple effects; teams revise on the spot and submit a final plan for teacher approval. The closing circle in the forest asks each student to name one feedback point received, one revision completed, and one limitation still being watched.
