Habitat Book at H.A. Hyde





Habitats

The work in this book was produced by Laura Azarro and Kim Schnittger’s second grade class with the help of Carolyn franks and susan megorden.

In This multidisciplinary project, the students covered science, Language Arts, and visual art standards which were connected to the topic of animal habitats.

We produced art about animal habitats and discussed the genre of landscape art while learning both water color and tempera paint techniques.

Here are the poems we produced:
