Grade Lvl:3-5

Challenge students to think like scientists and engineers as they design a home for a seed-eating bird! In this hands-on lesson, learners explore biodiversity and discover how animal traits are connected to survival. By considering the bird’s needs for food, shelter, and protection, students use critical thinking and creativity to build a habitat that supports its well-being. 

Mini STEAM lessons include all the information needed to complete the STEAM challenge. This instant download is made for students to work independently, with lesson materials focused on student pages that can be finished without direct instruction. All the essential info is easy to access, making mini lessons ideal for independent learning, engagement and family night activities, home explorations, and more. Plus, mini lessons come with marketing templates for flyers and passport options, simplifying the planning of STEAM nights. Not interested in marketing materials? Want your group to complete the challenge together? Check out our digital lessons, which offer more detailed plans perfect for classroom use.

How can we design a structure that meets a bird’s needs?
