K/1s Make Animals for the Baobab Tree

The K/1s listened to The Tree of Life: The World of the African Baobab, by Barbara Bash and noticed all the amazingly beautifully drawn birds, animals and insects that inhabit this tree that can live for 1.000 years! The students then selected one or two creatures to draw, cut out and place in the large baobab that is on the classroom wall as the room transforms for the end of the year celebration of work focusing on the study of Africa.
