Grade Lvl:2-5
In this engaging engineering challenge, students explore plant needs and the role herbivores play in ecosystems. Learners investigate how animals interact with plants and what strategies gardeners and farmers use to protect vegetation from being eaten. Using this knowledge, students design and build their own garden structures that shield a plant from herbivores while still allowing sunlight, air, and water to reach it. The challenge ties science directly to everyday problem-solving, giving students a meaningful connection between engineering design and environmental stewardship.
How can we create a garden that can survive wildlife threats?
