Art Enrichment Class makes their own PSAs!
The 7th Grade Enrichment class created PSAs. Students chose a topic that they felt strongly about in order to help raise awareness to the issue. After doing some research and script writing, they each created a Public Service Announcement using voki.com and goanimate4schools.com.
If you are a 7th grade art enrichment student and want to log in to GoAnimate4Schools, click here.
