STEM Project Project Brief The problem Jack is five years old and wants to own a pet. Every time his parents take him to the pet shop, he looks at all the birds in every cage. He hopes that one day he is allowed to take one home. His parents always say that Jack is too young for a pet and that he doesn't know how to look after it. How can Jack show his parents that he knows how to care for a bird? The task • Design and create a home for a wild bird that Jack could use to show his parents that he knows how to take care of birds. • Create a video of the bird home using a tablet computer application or a digital camera, explaining to Jack the things birds need to survive and how each feature caters for the bird’s needs. Important things you need to do! • You must work in pairs. • You must use recycled and natural materials found at home or at school. WATER WATER • Your bird home must be able to hang in a tree. Living Things LIVING THINGS HAVE NEEDS Viewing sample • It must be able to fit a parrot inside it. • You must cater for the bird's five basic needs. • The video must include instructions to Jack about how to care for a bird, using the features of the bird home. 32 Science: A STEM APPROACH Infants 978-1-912760-14-5 Prim-Ed Publishing – www.prim-ed.com
