"Mission Impossible" Food Fair

Students worked in teams to accomplish an impossible mission--to use a modern-day GMO to save an ancient civilization!  Each team was first given a mission impossible--a civilization and problem, such as "Roman Empire and Overpopulation" or "Medieval Europe & Black Death Disease".  Teams then researched their civilization, came up with a modern-day GMO to address that civilization's problem, and created a meal utilizing the modern-day GMO and at least 3 regional foods (based on the "Chopped" TV show).  Students used both technology and art to display their meal idea and arguments using citations.  Finally, teams showed off their ideas at a cross-class GMO Mission Impossible Fair!  Enjoy the photos from the exceptionally fun Fair Day below:
