Animals and creatures that help us
Natural science
Pollinators (Bees, Butterflies)
Understanding the role of pollinators in plant reproduction and food.
design and building a pollinator garden at school. students will research native plants that attract pollinators, plant them and observe pollinator activity, recording their fundings in a science
Decomposers (earthworms, fungi)
exploring the importance of decomposers in nutrient cycling and soil helath
create a worm farm in the classroom. students will investigate how earthworms break down organic matter, observe the process, and analyse the impact of soil activity.
social sciences
working Animals (Dogs, Horses)
Examining the historical and contemporary roles of animals in assisting. humans with tasks like farming, transportation, and law enforcement
invite a local k9 unit officer to speak to the class about how dogs assist in police work. students will prepare questions beforehand and reflect on the ethical considerations of using animals in such roles.
Animals in therapy ( Dogs,cats,Horses)
understanding emotional and physical benefits of animals-assisted therapy for people with disabilities or mental health challenges.
research different types of animal-assisted therapy programs. students will create presentations on the benefits and challenges of using animals in therapy, focusing on specific case studies.
Technology
Animal tracking technology (GPS collars, camera traps)
investigating how technology is used to monitor animal behaviour, migration, pattern, and conservation efforts.
use online resources to track the migration patterns of a specific animal species (e.g. Monarch and whales). students will analyse the data and create a presentation on the challenges these animals fae and how technology helps in their communication.
Assistive technology for animals (prosthetic, wheelchairs
Exploring how technology improves the quality of life for animals with disabilities.
research and design a prototype of a prosthetic device or assistive tool for an animal with a specific disability. students will consider the animal's needs, the materials required, and the functionality of the device.
