Poster Contest

RUBRIC For ADOPT a DOG POSTER CONTEST

Goal: Create a classroom poster to track both your sled dogs health and your classroom’s health. Students can track sled dogs health by creating graphs of heart rate or training miles. Students can track their class health by creating a graph on the number of hours of exercise everyday for all the students (exercise includes, running, walking, biking, etc.) Judging will occur in December by Kigluait and members of Kigluait Adventures Socialnet.
Remember the class with the best posters and the class with the most exercise time logged wins a free program in December. Download a Printable Version of the Rubric Here
