How are you feeling?
Start here
Ecosystem Lab Pull one thread — remove the otters, bring back the wolves — and watch the trophic cascade ripple through the food chain.
Restoration Scenario Predict how a real conservation project turns an ecosystem around, then watch life return.
Predator & Prey Predict how two populations rise and fall together over time.
EcoSphere Journey A path through every kit — clear each stop of real practice, then move on. All activities
Predict-and-observe labs
Ecosystem Lab Energy flow, the ten-percent pyramid, and who-eats-whom — trace a trophic cascade one chain at a time. Predator & Prey Predict how two populations rise and fall together over time. Restoration Scenario Predict a conservation project, then watch life return. Food Web Detective Add each energy-flow arrow from what you observed. Energy Pyramid Predict how much energy survives each 10% step. Teach the Cast Teach an ecosystem idea to a cast member still learning it — teaching makes it stick.
Practice & play
Mixed Practice A short round across the kits you have played — brought back to make it stick. EcoSphere Sprint Race your OWN best on what you already know. Timer optional, no penalty for a miss. Trick Questions Brain-teasers with a twist — spot why the obvious answer is a trap. Ecosphere Duel 2–4 players take turns on one device — same questions, highest first-try score wins. Or open an online room. Progress Your levels, days active, and how each skill area is coming along — saved on this device. Progress report For grown-ups — a private on-device snapshot mapped to the skill areas. Export a CSV or print.
