Inspiring Students through the Arts: At Franklin Elementary STEAM Night!
Wildlife Jewels Arts at the Franklin Elementary School STEAM night, Thursday March 27
Drawing Inspiration from Wildlife: Wildlife Jewels’ Learn from Wildlife™ Activity at Franklin Elementary STEAM night!
On Thursday, March 27th, we were thrilled to participate Franklin Elementary School STEAM night!
Inspiring day! Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting one of our Learn from Wildlife™ art activities at Franklin Elementary's STEAM Night!
It was incredible to see the students' creativity as they illustrated Wildlife Jewels’ Rubellite the Elegant Tern, Pink Tourmaline the Pelican, Peridot the Allen’s Hummingbird, Mandarin Garnet the Monarch Butterfly, and Carnelian the Ant—while discovering the unique stories behind each.
Their curiosity blossomed as they explored coastal wildlife, pollinators, and even gained insights from ants!
