Biodiversity Jenga

Pair up Bill Nye the Science Guy and Jenga to engage students with the concept of biodiversity, and to underscore the importance of maintaining healthy, diverse ecosystems. Students remove native species from an ecosystem, and add non-native or invasive species. They see and understand how these actions may ultimately compromise the health and stability of an ecosystem.
