This Endangered Species webquest is an interdiscplinary unit where students can broaden their understanding of math and science. The students will work together cooperatively in groups to collect data on specific species of animals. They will utilize skills of geometry with determining area and scale models/drawings in a real world application of designing an animal habitat. This is a way to utilize technology for research and collection of data, along with hands-on kinesthetic activity to reach all learners.
