Item description
Let us look at frogs – the champion animal athlete with strong legs!
Your students will have a wonderful time using tadpoles, tree frogs or
big toads as inspiration for innovative ideas or problem-solving. This
biomimicry resource will guide you through the process of using design
challenges and steam activities to inspire students to ask questions,
study the natural world and use creative thinking to explore the animal
world.
These activities are fun and engaging. And great brain workout!

Reviews of other Think Dive – Sparking Children’s Thinkibility products:
Project based learning: Bats, STEAM, Biomimicry
“This
product is absolutely the favorite one I have purchased all fall! I
love the information that is provided about bats – just enough to
intrigue and encourage higher level thinking. There are graphic
organizers, worksheets, and subtle suggestions to help young learners
perform at their best! And best of all, it stretches their creativity!
Thanks for such an amazing resource!”
Project Based Learning, Insects, Lapbook – STEAM, Biomimicry
A
very comprehensive, thorough, and unique resource to teach elementary
students about biomimicry! An excellent addition to any biology unit!
Why am I qualified to write these biomimicry resources? I
was a member of BEN – Biomimicry Education Network – and a curator
of educational resources at BEN. I am the author of the book
Biomimicry with Theo & Tuva: Nature spotting inspires wild
ideas. In 2015, I completed a course in Biomimicry: A Sustainable
Design Methodology at Minneapolis College of Art and Design. I
took part in the Biomimicry Design Challenge in 2021.
