Your Final Project: Create a Public Service Announcement.

Everything you learn in this project will help you make your public service announcement to help save the rainforests. 

Here’s a sample public service announcement or PSA about the rainforest. Your take action project is to create a PSA. You will be able to pick your rainforest topic and design what it will be about. 

Watch this video. How did it make you feel? Was it a good or effective video? Why? 

Mini-Projects

While you learn about the rainforest you’ll do four cool mini-projects. Some are games, some are fun poems. They are all things you can use in your final PSA. It’s up to you how you use them.
