"Invite students to play their way into a vernal pool food web. In this language-rich STEM activity, students become the organisms in a vernal pool, physically building connections with yarn while using observation, speaking, and reasoning skills to explain relationships." ๐ง
A temporary puddle = one of nature's most magical ecosystems
A ๐ #LitLinks lesson that helps students see vernal pools โ and nature itself โ as a living system of relationships.
