Description
Designing, building and making things capture children’s imagination. Explore the wonders of nature and architecture with these thought-provoking activities.
Engage students with captivating Architecture & Design Activities through this Biomimicry Design Project. This comprehensive resource fosters a deep understanding of nature-inspired design principles, integrating STEAM concepts and nonfiction learning. Perfect for promoting critical thinking and creativity, these activities are designed to inspire students to apply biomimicry to real-world architectural challenges.
How can you use a lotus flower to make a cosy reading nook? Why would you want to build a floating city? And how can an ant be used to build a huge garbage machine?
These activities are fun and engaging. And great brain workout!
This resource has been prepared so that your students can use it on digital devices. I have selected suitable slides for you, you need to insert text boxes and you can also add instructions for your students. There is also a short assessment with a couple of questions.

"Used this for a Kindergarten STEAM club unit and it was a hit!"
Why am I qualified to write these biomimicry resources? I was a member of BEN - Biomimicry Education Network - and a curator of educational resources at BEN. I am the author of the book Biomimicry with Theo & Tuva: Nature spotting inspires wild ideas. In 2015, I completed a course in Biomimicry: A Sustainable Design Methodology at Minneapolis College of Art and Design. I took part in the Biomimicry Design Challenge in 2021.
