Kids’ Animal Guide

PEEC partnered with students from the 3rd and 4th grades at Kha’p’o Community School in Santa Clara Pueblo to create this Kids’ Animal Guide. This guide is for kids, by kids, and contains not only facts, but also original artwork and creative writing about the animals and their habitats that the students created with the guidance of their teachers Diane Chavarria, Barbara Chavarria, and Eliza Naranjo Morse. Thank you to all the students, teachers, and community members who helped with the guide.
