This document provides instructions for students to design a habitat for an endangered animal as part of a zoo exhibit. It outlines the challenge to help protect animals from extinction and constraints for the habitat design. Students will research their assigned animal, brainstorm habitat designs, create a prototype using the engineering design process, and present their final design. The engineering design process steps of asking, imagining, planning, creating, improving, and sharing a solution are defined. Students are also assigned project roles and the document provides materials for researching their animal. The overall goal is for students to design realistic habitats that could help endangered species in zoos.
This presentation will be the introduction of the unit of work "Save our Animals".

WebQuest for 7th grade science students studying evolution:
As a scientist, you are worried about the mass extinction going on. You decide that you need to do something about it. You develop a plan. First, you will pick one endangered animal species that you will study in detail. You will fill out “Field Notes,” then research the evolution of your species and create a “branching diagram”. You will write a 300-word essay about your species and create a visual displaying all of the information that you learned about your species (a poster, brochure, model, etc.). To communicate your findings to your colleagues, you will make a short presentation explaining everything you learned about your endangered animal species.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Improve Them - Agile Cambridge 2017Chris Smith
At Redgate we've identified a set of principles that we believe are key for our development teams. We want these principles to be memorable and fun, so we unleashed our Fantastic Beasts to help!
In this workshop, attendees found out all about our Fantastic Beasts; why they exist, what they represent and how we use them. We ask participants to explore what the beasts mean to them and they will take away the means to unleash them in their own habitat.
About the Speaker
Chris is a Divisional Development Lead at Redgate. His job is to lead the software development teams that work on Redgate's ingeniously simple database tools; building teams with clarity of purpose, autonomy within their remit and encouraging continuous improvement.
Companion parrot owners can incorporate ideas included in modern environmental enrichment programs in zoos to ensure their feathered friends lead active, engaging lives in captivity.

4. INTRODUCTION
Daily there are plants and animals
that are seriously at risk of
becoming extinct. Why? Humans
are largely responsible for
endangered animals. There are
reasons such as destruction of their
habitat, pollution, and hunting and
fishing.
5. CHALLENGE
How can we protect animals from
becoming extinct?
Zoo Atlanta is bringing some
endangered animals to the zoo in
efforts to help keep the species from
becoming extinct. As a Zoo Exhibit
Designer, you have been asked to
create a habitat for your endangered
animal.
6. CONSTRAINTS
You will have to research your animal’s
natural habitat.
The habitat must include: a water
source, food source, at least 1 plant, 1
predator, 1 prey
You must follow the Engineering Design
Process
It must be creative and realistic.
8. ENGINEERING
CONNECTION
For this project you will be Zoo habitat
designers are responsible for designing
animal exhibits and overseeing their
construction. To be an
Zoo Habitat Designer you will need an
architecture. You will need 3D computer
design experience. You will also need to
know about the animal you are designing a
habitat for. As a Zoo Habitat Designer, you
can make up to $101, 850 per year.

animals.
12. ASK
What are your constraints (or
limitations?)
We have to research our animal’s natural

What is the color?
It has fur/skin/feathers?
What does it eat?
Where does it live?
What are its predators?
What is its prey?
How long does it live?
14. IMAGINE
What are some solutions?
Brainstorm some ideas with your
team.
Come up with a design for your
habitat. What does it need?
