The Three Little Javelinas, Javelina Deterrents
by Stephanie Nichols
Students are introduced to the javelina through reading part of The Three Little Javelinas, reading about javelinas and watching an informational video. They discover potential conflicts and root causes that may arise from humans encroaching on javelina territory and design solutions to keep javelinas from seeking food, water, and shelter at their homes. Students build models using recyclables.
