Pack your parkas and get ready to explore the Arctic! In this hands-on, family-style class, students will dive into the fascinating world of polar bears, penguins, narwhals, wolves, and more. Each week features a different Arctic animal and includes three interactive parts: 🎨 Draw It! — Step-by-step art lessons where students learn to draw the featured animal. 📖 Write It! — Create a mini fact book to record what you’ve learned about each creature’s features, habitat, and how God designed it for its environment. ⚙️ Build It! — Complete a simple, fun STEM challenge inspired by the animal’s characteristics or the icy world it lives in. This class is designed for families learning together, with activities that encourage teamwork, creativity, and discovery. Siblings can share materials, brainstorm ideas, and build side by side while gaining new knowledge about science, art, and God’s incredible creation. Whether you join one 6-week session or complete both parts, you’ll finish with a colorful collection of animal drawings, mini fact books, and STEM projects that celebrate the beauty and wonder of God’s Arctic world!
