Create-a-Plant Project Create-a-Plant Project Students will work individually to create a new species of plant. Students will need to describe the environment needed for their plant and create a new plant which is going to be strong and resilient enough to survive in that environment. Students will need to consider what this plant is going to look like, what it is going to produce, how it is going to get its food and water, and what it needs to survive.
