Art

Grade Lvl:3+

Engage students in studying ecosystems and food webs through an imaginative art and engineering challenge! In this creative lesson, learners explore trophic levels and energy flow, then design and craft a functioning piñata modeled after a chosen consumer. Each piñata is filled with representations of organisms from that animal’s food web, illustrating the connections among producers and consumers. The interactive process of constructing, decorating, and filling their piñatas transforms ecology into an exciting, hands-on learning experience that blends science, design, and creativity into one unforgettable project.

How can we create a piñata filled with a real food web?
