This lesson has students watching a baby plant and seeing what it will grow into. Students are able to compare the seedling with an adult plant, and determine how the plant cycles from seed to adult
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
Students will research and understand bird evolution. They will identify the functions of body parts and ecosystems. They will predict evolutionary changes that a specific bird will go through and the
