Description
Take your students on an exciting journey where math and science meet with this hands-on ecosystem project! Students will design and build their own Eco-Explorer Zoo, integrating area, perimeter, geometry, and STEM concepts while exploring the wonders of ecosystems and animals. Whether researching ecosystems or creating exhibits for animals, this differentiated project fosters creativity, critical thinking, and essential math skills.
What Concepts and Skills Are Covered:
- Ecosystem research (geographical features, climate, living organisms)
- Animal research (adaptations, food chains, life cycles)
- Area and perimeter calculations
- Geometry (hexagons, triangles, quadrilaterals)
- STEM integration with model building and design
What's Included:
- Research guides for ecosystems and animals
- Step-by-step planning for zoo design
- Differentiated grids for area and perimeter
- Licensing tests to earn "zoo-building" and "animal care" licenses
- Tour guide brochure templates
- Google Slides version for digital learning
- Rubrics to assess each step
Why Grab This Resource?:
- Engaging and hands-on: Students create their own ecosystem zoo while applying math and science.
- Cross-curricular: Combines math, science, and STEM into one fun, real-world project.
- Differentiated: Options for all learners with multiple project paths.
- Low-prep: Easy-to-use, print-and-go resources that save you time.

Printing Notes:
While I recommend printing in color and laminating materials for future use, it is not necessary. These materials print just fine in grayscale. I would suggest printing "as image" to avoid any potential issues. Additionally, download the resource to your computer, open it, and then print. Printing from your browser often creates problems.
