Endangered Animals Species Research Project Based Learning Science Activities

With this endangered animals resource, enhance your students' learning of what they can do to help save our endangered animals. These student-centered PBL units incorporate collaboration and differentiation by providing student choice. The real-world challenges require students to use inquiry, critical thinking, and their creative minds during the high-interest cross-curricular activities [math, social studies, science, ELA]. Students integrate digital learning into the project as they investigate different endangered animals and plan their final product.

This PBL SAVE OUR ENDANGERED ANIMALS unit incorporates 21st Century skills with challenging, engaging, and creative activities. It's perfect for your nonfiction book study.
