Superhero Bear: Grizzly 399
Students will learn about the natural history, habitat, and challenges faced by grizzly bears and then use that knowledge to work through the process of creating a comic strip or graphic novel to build awareness about this endangered animal.
This FREE standards-based curriculum is sponsored by Love the Wild Foundation. Teacher and student resources and step-by-step directions make this an ideal project for face-to-face, hybrid, or remote learning.

Upcycling Challenge
After learning about upcycling and plastics, create an upcycled product. Be inventive! Be creative! Be useful! Look around the house for items that are no longer needed, especially those made of plastic. Create a new product that can either be used by animals or helps people appreciate animals. Then come up with a clever name for the product. Remember, this is something that people might want to buy or make themselves.
In addition to building something new, write directions on how to make it. The directions and photo of the product might be added to a Green Kids Upcycling Project book so that others can use their old junk to build something useful and make better use of plastics.

Kenyan Village Sponsorship
Oltome Community Village Primary School Kenya Village Support
Love the Wild is working to enhance environmental education through support of the Oltome Community Village Primary School located on the outskirts of Amboseli National Park. This village consists of members from the Maasai tribe Our main goal is to help educate children to become stewards of our lands. What better way than to go directly to a place that has such a huge environmental impact on the animals of Africa? During the pandemic, this village was hit hard with a lack of tourist dollars coming through to help them with their village and schooling. Learning was spotty, teachers were not getting paid and therefore classes were not happening on schedule, and children were not receiving an adequate education including regular meals.
The number of children involved includes classrooms from K-3rd grade and 4 teachers with approximately 100 students. Our foundation was paying teachers' salaries, and breakfast & lunch for the children. Environmental Classroom curriculum is being implemented per class every day of the week. If you can help to support this initiative, we need the support of $1700 per month. Any help you can give us is well appreciated!
