Lastly, we got creative! Explorers began working on their entry to the 2013 Unnatural Resources Fair competition that will also be exhibited in the K-12 Youth Expressions Art Project at the Greenville Mall and at the K-12 Works by Pitt County School's Art Students at the Greenville Museum of Art. All three events take place in the second half of the school year.
The theme for this year's Youth Express Art Project is biodiversity which fits perfectly with our botanical/entomology theme we had already selected. Using materials destined for either the trash can or recycle bin, Explorers started tranforming the objects into one of a kind insects and beautiful flowers. We want to thank all of the parents that sent items in and Mr. Phillips for lending us his classroom and glue gun and for providing direction and assistance!
