Seed Dispersal Building Challenge - November 2018

In our learning about plants, students found out that seeds can be dispersed by many different ways in nature.  It's important for the ultimate success of plant species.  In small groups, they were challenged to design and build a seed pod that would successfully spread seeds as far as possible, given certain conditions.  Some were going to be in a windy environment, some would have furred animals passing nearby and others could only use gravity.  Many groups had the opportunity to give their prototype some testing.  Eventually, they went through a final testing process.
