Students will create a digital storyboard depicting what happens when an invasive species enters a native species' environment. Students will pick an ecosystem and do research on a scholarly website to find an invasive species that inhabits it. Then they will find which native species are being harmed by the invasive species. The storyboard will contain 6-8 boxes that will be accompanied by captions describing what the organisms are doing and/or what is being done to them.
