If your class's imagination was sparked by completing the Plan(et) B discovery activity then keep their interest going with these creative activities.

Mini me

Ask the class to consider differences in the way we would have to live if we were the size of insects. Why are insects important? Then, either:

• Children research, imagine and design a world where humans are the  size of insects. Create miniature clay people and stage photos of them with everyday objects or write stories or drama productions using them
   
• Share images of miniature models and materials on the school website and ask viewers to consider the human impact on animals and how imagining themselves in miniature has helped them view insects differently 

A wetter world

Imagine what would happen if the land flooded. Work together to create an underwater city. How will humans, land animals and sea creatures all exist and live together in the same environment?

• Consider ways of communicating the dangers that humans can pose to wild animals to the school community. Ideas could be expressed through creating a giant mural, cardboard scene with recycled materials, diorama or writing a play.
