Sofie learned that people will put a building in the wetland near her home.
She’s worried it will hurt the birds and other animals that live there.

What is a wetland?
What kinds of birds and other animals live there?

What problems would a building cause for them?
Choose one to explore.
Think about how to solve it.

Talk about the problem you chose.
What will change for your animal?
What will it need now?

Design and build a solution to help the animal.
Try sketching first.
Or use the picture for ideas.

Program your model.
Use the sample program for ideas if you build the birdhouse.
(Or, program the door to open for the little bird.)

Use your model and program to explain:
what will change in the wetlands.

Use your model and program to explain what problem this causes for your animal.

Use your model and program to explain how your design will solve the problem.

Keep building and programming your wetlands solution.
Use it to make a claim about how your design will help the animal after people start building.

Great job!
