You may be familiar with the fact that many animals are endangered, but so are plants! As a future botanist, it’s time to take action! Here’s what to do:
STEP 1: Use a search engine to find endangered plants in your state.
STEP 2: Pick your favorite endangered plant.
STEP 3: Do another round of research to see why it is endangered, and what is being done to protect this plant.
STEP 4: Based on your research, create a ‘Most Wanted’ poster for this plant to raise awareness of why it is so important to protect this plant, and what people can do to help.
STEP 5: Share your Most Wanted poster in the Student Showcase to build your resume as a botanist!
