Postcards from the Wild!

For this year’s art and writing assignment, the Adopt-a-Species partners will be supplying teacher’s with a 5x7” postcard template. Students will draw a picture of their species in its habitat in a postcard design. They can illustrate with border or words or where ever their imaginations take them. On the back, they will write their message to a pen pal, spreading the good word about Montana wildlife and habitat.

Postcards Sept 2010

A selection of these postcards will be published in the spring in the Independent Record.
