March Mammal Madness

Welcome to March Mammal Madness. This is a global event that involves people of all ages, even adults. This event is modeled after the NCAA Basketball March Madness - but it is FILLED with science. Over the course of February/March students are learning about interesting animals (although they are weirdly not all mammals), animal interactions, their scientific names, habitats, adaptations, trophic level, effects of human impact.  - plus it is SO much fun! On the nights listed on the calendar below, a fictional (but science-based) battle happens on Twitter (it plays out like the old radio days. Students DO NOT have to participate on Twitter, but if you wanted to, follow the hashtag #2023MMM - I will give them recaps and results the following days and I will post those recap videos here as well.   I am sharing all of our important resources below and I hope you will play along. I am all about some evidence based science conversation at the dinner table. Good luck!

P.S. The MMM tagline is "If you're learning, you're winning"!!
