The children participated in a short discussion in which they expressed their thoughts on the subject. A craft activity ession was conducted in the online class in which the children printed animal faces using finger impressions.
The students of Pre Primary were educated on the role of forests, forest species and ecosystems in sustaining the livelihoods of millions of people. Students were shown pictures of various endangered animals and a discussion was held on the role of these animals in protecting our ecosystems.
The students actively participated in the discussion and volunteered ideas on things they can do to lend their support for the protection of animals.
They crafted bookmarks and stick puppets of the endangered species in their craft session.
