Pollinator Heroes Needed!
A very important group of species needs your help.
Be a hero for pollinators in your community by creating or protecting habitat for them to live and thrive. When you do, you will also be helping other species who are dependent on the actions of pollinators -- including you, me, and all humans!

EXPLORE
Now that you know why pollinators are so important and some of the threats they are facing, it's time to get to work!
In this stage, you'll be EXPLORING the species who live near you and need your help. You'll also get a chance to EXPLORE what these species need to survive and thrive.

SOLVE
Ready to help? It is time to do something with all you've learned about your pollinator. Your next challenge is to identify, design, and carry out a project that can help SOLVE the problem.
TAKE CARE to observe how well it works

QUESTION
All Quests begin with asking QUESTIONS. In this case, our questions will be about the group of animals we call pollinators. You've probably already had many personal experiences with this group of animals. You may have seen them outside where you live or at school. You may have learned about them in books, magazines, on a screen, or from other people. So to start this Quest, your first challenge is to consider what you already know about pollinators.

CHECK FOR SUCCESS and improve it as needed

UNCOVER
If we are going to help any of the animals we call pollinators, there is some essential information we need to gather first. In this stage of the Quest, we will UNCOVER information about this group of animals and why they are important.

Let's follow the next step in the engineering design process.
DO THE WORK to create your solution

TEACH OTHERS
Now that you've taken action to help your pollinators, it's time to get others excited too! In the TEACH OTHERS section you'll be telling your story to others and to Team Project Hero
