Ecosystem Project | Area & Perimeter Project | PBL Printable & Digital

$7.50

This ecosystem project is perfect for integrating area, perimeter, geometry, and STEM learning in your science classroom! Students work through a series of steps, including research, to design and build a model of their own ecosystem zoo!

This project focuses not only on ecosystems, but allows for research on a specific animal too! You can split your class and half research an animal for the zoo, while the other half prepare the ecosystem piece. Either way, students are sure to learn a lot while incorporating the area, perimeter, and geometry math skills, and the best part – it’s differentiated!
