Evaluate Your Nest Box

colorful birdhouses
Some people create unique nest boxes for birds.

What happened with your design? If your bird moved in, congratulations! You have designed a successful nest box. You may continue to improve it and test out new ideas if you like.

If your bird did not move into your nest box, refine your design and try again.

Review the costs of the materials that you included for your nest box. Were you able to stay within budget constraints?

Teacher Note

If a group's design has failed, they may need your help to figure out what went wrong.
