Scavenger Hunt: A Group Collection
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners are divided into teams.
The Beaks of the Finches
Source Institutions
In this simulation, learners become birds different beak types. Learners use various tools to represent beaks to pick up seeds and place them in a petri dish.
