Rabbit Life Cycle | PBL Biomimicry Design Inspired by Nature STEAM

Item description

This project based learning unit focuses on the life cycle of
rabbits but it also extends the understanding of the different stages.
Rabbits are fluffy with long ears but they are also tremendously
interesting. Popular pets and wonderful inspiration for new ideas and
innovations! This is a lesson plan that will guide you through the
process of using biomimicry and steam activities to inspire students
to ask questions, study animals and plants, and use creative thinking
to explore ideas.
