NGSS Standard: MS-LS1-5; MS-ETS1-3
Science and Engineering Practices: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions
Crosscutting Concepts: Cause and Effect
Year Created: 2016
Phenomena: None explicit: in the future, I can show pictures of various sized birdhouses or make connections to various flower shapes
Reflection: This project was created as a way to integrate the engineering standards into the life science curriculum.
