During the time we've been at home, in Social Studies we have learned about different people, places, and needs in our world. My students are becoming more aware that there is something larger than them, but they make up a subset of a huge world. Art seems so remote for our class sometimes just because of the lack of materials and material distribution to my students at home. Poster paper and markers will help us create a so called "campaign" the students will research, investigate, and publish their own student created Google Slides. These supplies will enable us to have an extension / celebration to our class project for Earth Day in early spring 2021. With the amount of poster paper we get we can tie in Science standards for a second project related to animal adaptations in different habitats. Being that we'll already have the supplies we can extend our Science project as well!
