This month in Kindergarten, we are learning how to name physical attributes (hair color, eye color, freckles, etc.) and be proud of our differences. Build Your Wild Self is sponsored by the Wildlife Conservation Society in partnership with New York Zoos and Aquariums. Children can begin by choosing attributes that most resemble themselves, then they can go wild and add alligator snouts or butterfly wings--or both! After making choices in over 15 categories, students can send their creation to a friend (or the teacher so you can save the jpg), print, or start over. This could be a great beginning to a creative writing piece. So go ahead, and build your wild self!!
Johnna, I think this is a really cool. I tried it and liked it.
ReplyDeleteI love this site! I think I'm going to use it for descriptive writing this year.
ReplyDeleteI love this site! I think my students would enjoy making avatars. It would definitely generate some interesting writing!
