My Project
Help me give my students art supplies to complete a unit study project on the effects of ocean life, invasive species and the coral reef here in Florida.
My goal is to inform students through the use of art and hands on activities , the effect invasive species have on our coral reef.
I am asking for modeling clay to create 3D models of the lionfish and other ocean animals.
The lionfish invasion is just one of the species that endanger the delicate balance here in Florida. Our students are able to study and learn about these effects and then create artwork to spread the awareness.
