Hooook, the PreVu Animalia mascot

The kids were tasked with inventing a creature together, and then designing and creating its features. They chose a porcupine-bat-lion-snake-wolf-bird hybrid animal. While some kids hand-sewed some beautiful feathers, others worked to build the body from cardboard. Some decided that pipe cleaners could be pushed into the top to make spikes. In the last 10 minutes of making, there was a mad dash to paint the creature, and almost every student was working to complete the creature in time. They were amazing collaborators, truly working together to make their ideas come to life!

In the review, they decided to name their creature 'Hooook,' and did an excellent job of talking about its features and the process of making it together.
