    The document provides a design brief for an investigation into mixtures that can remove oil from bird feathers. Students will test feathers coated in oil in different mixtures and record the results. The goal is to find a mixture that effectively cleans oil off feathers to help birds affected by an ocean oil spill. Students will then create a digital presentation summarizing what an oil spill is, how it impacts birds, the most effective mixture found, and include photos from their investigation.
