I loved 5th grades angry bird’s animal adaptations that they have up right now. It took something that students enjoy and allowed them to create an adapted animal. Remmeber that our fab fifth graders have this to think about:
5.9 Science Concept. The student knows that adaptations may increase the survival of
members of a species.
The student is expected to:
(A) compare the adaptive characteristics of species that improve their ability to
survive and reproduce in an ecosystem;
(B) analyze and describe adaptive characteristicsthat result in an organism’s unique
niche in an ecosystem: and
(C) predict some adaptive characteristics required for survival and reproduction by
an organism in an ecosystem.
