Increased knowledge
Your students should have a greater understanding of bugs and their purpose in the ecosystem.

Encouraged open-mindedness
Students who were once afraid of bugs have developed an understanding of insects and an interest in their place in the world.

Sparked creativity
Your project allowed your students to be innovative and utilize problem-solving techniques.

Utilized budgetary constraints
You considered ideas and applications of the Harry's Big Adventure curriculum that were cost-effective for your school.

Timeliness
Students should be able to complete the work within a regular classroom period or two, depending on the estimated length of the project.

Results-oriented
Students can show their parents or friends the end-result of the project and educate others based on what they have learned.
