This interactive presentation is based on Tanya Lloyd Kyi's picture books Our Green City, What Will I Discover?, and Bompa’s Insect Expedition. Young readers will choose their own green-city jobs, generate forest sound effects, and seek-and-find some sneaky insects. Then students will write their own green story as a group… that is, if a dragon story can be green. Students will leave with new knowledge about the environment and a new understanding of how picture book stories are created.
This program is suitable for primary students.
