Description

This is a biomimicry Freebie where Moles play the main role! You’ll have a great time exploring this unique animal with your students. Using moles as inspiration for creative thinking can lead to wonderful and exciting ideas and insights.

Feel inspired, Be Creative and Make Change.

If you've never used biomimicry before this lesson plan will guide you through the process of using biomimicry and steam activities. Using this resource is a great way to inspire students to ask questions, study animals and use creative thinking to explore ideas. Biomimicry is based on the idea that students can take inspiration from nature when solving problems. Your students will love learning and exploring this innovative approach to problem-solving.

This activity is fun and engaging. And great brain workout!

This resource has been prepared so that your students can use it on digital devices. I have selected suitable slides for you, you need to insert text boxes and you can also add instructions for your students.
