The best digger in the longleaf pine forest is a little gopher tortoise. It can use its feet to carve out a burrow as long as a school bus! But these talented tortoises are disappearing. Create a model of the forest to investigate gopher tortoises and what is happening to them. Uncover why they are at risk—and what people can do to help.

In the Spotlight: Splash, you wash with it. Gulp, you drink it. How else do you use water? Jump in and explore where to find water, how humans depend on it, and how to keep it safe to use. Along the way, ask yourself, How does my new knowledge help me understand the world?
