My Project

Students will research an endangered or threatened animal and create a bust which will be hung on a wall like taxidermy. The bust will be made of foam and other upcycled materials. These busts will be displayed at our annual STEAM fair to inform people about the sustainable development goals life on land and life under water. Upcycling materials takes a stance on illegal hunting and fishing practices as well as deforestation of endangered animal's environments. Students will be required to think outside of the box to create their animal, capture their personality, and hang it up!
