Creature Create!
Posted by Joshua Bartosiewicz- Students working together to create their ideal creature!
- Students are using their chromebooks to look up different structures of existing animals to build their creature!
The activity, “Creature Create!” was intended to allow students to use their knowledge on plant and animal body parts (which includes understanding their functions) to make their own hybrid lifeforms! Students worked in groups to brainstorm their ideas. The scholars were even allowed to include mythical or fictional creatures too, which spiced up some of the incredible beings that were designed. As students constructed their creatures they were asked to label the parts of their animals and include a description of where that animal lives (some did on a separate sheet of paper or on the back of the poster!). The goal of this activity was to get the students thinking about the specific functions of certain parts of animals and plants; as well as understanding how those structures allow the plant or animal to thrive in its natural habitat. In the end, students presented their creations to their classmates and it was a thrill to see what everyone came up with.
