then present it and have a class vote on the best campaign.
Materials: pencils, notebooks, pictures or photos of endangered animals, coloring pencils, white paper or
card, counters

EXPERIMENT LAB: LIGHT BOXES


Students will learn about how and what we use light boxes for and then how to make and test an animal
light box.
Materials: pencils, notebooks, white cardboard, foam board, thick cardboard, LED lights, rulers,
scissors, glue
