The pupils of the 4th grade worked on a project about animals and endangered species. They searched for information on the internet and leaflets, watched videos, made posters. Using simple materials such as paper, colours, tree leaves, stones, sand, cotton, playmobils and … their imagination they created the animals’ habitats. Fantastic work, kids! (What a great idea, Fenia!)
