Learning Domain: Algebra: Creating Equations
Standard: Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.*

Science Domain: Earth and Space Sciences
Topic: Weather and Climate
Standard: Use a model to describe how variations in the flow of energy into and out of Earth’s systems result in changes in climate. [Clarification Statement: Examples of the causes of climate change differ by timescale, over 1-10 years: large volcanic eruption, ocean circulation; 10-100s of years: changes in human activity, ocean circulation, solar output; 10-100s of thousands of years: changes to Earth's orbit and the orientation of its axis; and 10-100s of millions of years: long-term changes in atmospheric composition.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment of the results of changes in climate is limited to changes in surface temperatures, precipitation patterns, glacial ice volumes, sea levels, and biosphere distribution.]

This is a really interesting topic! When students completed the coral reefs assignment at home and develop questions, did they have any training or guidance as to how they were to develop those questions? If so, it would be helpful if you attached how you did that. Great work!
I enjoyed going through the final presentations that were created by the students. I thought they did an excellent job of providing detailed analyses of the relationships between the environment, tourism, and the economy. In looking at the students' work, I wonder if your team had also had difficulty getting students to incorporate the math standards into their projects. We had a similar issue in that the math standards we were hoping to align, particularly ones that involve computational skills, did not seem to show up in the students' final products.
Integrating the math was more challenging for sure!
