Students will investigate a surprising photosynthesis phenomenon, launch the Food Web Carnival challenge, and use early plant evidence to begin explaining how sunlight supports plants and eventually animals while preparing for later user-centered game design work.

Students will gather evidence from plant investigations and younger-student feedback, then turn those findings into an empathy artifact and a science-based game design brief for the Food Web Carnival.

Students will turn prior plant-energy evidence and user insights into a clear game direction, build a low-fidelity Food Web Carnival prototype, test it quickly with peers, and revise it based on science accuracy and younger-player usability.

Students will use evidence from plant investigations and user feedback to complete two revision cycles on their Food Web Carnival game, validate the game with a new audience member, and prepare a clear walkthrough showing how science ideas, player needs, and team decisions shaped the refined prototype.

Students will present their finished Food Web Carnival games to younger learners, gather final user feedback on science accuracy and playability, and reflect on how their evidence, revisions, and teamwork strengthened their final solution.
