Students in Team Promise, Team Empower, and Team Wonder were curious to know if all living things have a right to live in their natural habitat. Furthermore, they wanted to know how can we, as citizens of West Allis, live in harmony with our animal population? After doing research on a variety of different local animals and observing potential problems in their own backyards, students sketched out plans for contraptions to either attract “pets” or to keep “pests” away. They then went on to modify and build the inventions they came up with based on feedback from their peers. This learning was done remotely! How amazing is that? Here are some awesome inventions they came up with!
