Desert Animal Report and Craft

I've been working on animal habitats lately with one of my students who loves animals, and we did a fun desert animal report and craft that could easily be adapted for lots of different kids.

We first read about the desert animal habitat using these resources, then he chose one animal that he wanted to make.

To plan the project, we listed out the parts of the snake and what we might use to make each part.

Once this was planned, he painted the macaroni black (because the snake he wanted to make was black).

While we waited for the paint to dry, we did this quiz activity about the desert.

After the paint dried, we strung them together with yarn and he drew the snake face and glued it on.
