Description
In this lesson, students are working collaboratively to create a prototype for a safe passage to cross the road safely.
Students share their discovery with materials of how they created their prototype to create the safe passage for turtles. In this prototype, many have discovered how it can help other animals
Prior to doing this lesson, students did a PBL lesson on the effects of litter on the endangerment of sea turtles in our area. After doing the virtual field trip at the Georgia Sea Turtle Hospital, students will create a safe passage for sea turtles using the engineering design process. Students will use a modified lesson plan from Teach Engineering to collaboratively work together.
