Earth Day Poster Project You will be making a poster to remind and teach everyone about ways to save, protect, and take care of our Earth. I will give you the poster board today, and your poster is DUE after vacation, on Wednesday, April 19th. -You may use crayons, markers, paint, or colored pencils, or any mixture of these! -You may draw your own pictures, cut pictures out of magazines, or find ideas on the internet and print those. Above all, be sure that: -your poster is bright and colorful -spelling is correct -lettering is neat -your poster is attractive (not sloppy!) -Plan ahead. Don’t make this a last-minute project the night before. -Ask your family for ideas. Here is the list of ideas our class came up with. Choose one for your poster: Don’t litter! Keep the land clean.
