SOMEONE NEEDS HELP IN COLD!

SUMMARY

In our world, the winter season affects all living things negatively. For this reason, living things must have shelters in order to survive in the winter season. The aim of our project is to design water containers for our animals living on the streets and protection houses for animals. In addition, our students will design animal houses and water containers according to the STEM engineering design stages in our project. And as a result, we aim to provide animal love and empathy to our students, teachers and people around us. This sensitivity initiated in our schools will affect wider communities. Our age range of activities: 5-13 years old.

4 – To increase the awareness that some of the waste from our homes will be recycled
5 – Solving problems they encounter in daily life according to engineering design stages (STEM).

TIME: 2 WEEKS

PROBLEM STATUS:

Students are asked to design shelters according to the Engineering Design Steps (STEM) for stray animals that are cold in winter.
