- Abstract
The article presents information on a third-grade science activity in which students learn about desert ecosystems, animal adaptations, and argumentation through a game show-style puppet play. It addresses the need to align U.S. elementary science education with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), analyzing and interpreting scientific data, and communicating effectively with peers.
