The World Animal Day is celebrated annually on the 4th of October, which in reality turns out to be the whole week event.
Here are a few things that teachers can do to celebrate the animal week:
- Organize an animal-themed painting competition in a class.
- Organize an animal-themed essay writing competition in a class, similar to one shown on the right.
- Ask students to bring animal-themed articles, videos, etc. They could even have them downloaded from YouTube, which could be played in the class.
- Help students launch a school recycling campaign to protect the school habitat and resources that school's teachers and students share.
- Ask children to build small shelters with old cartons for the street dogs around their homes so that they would be warm during the winter season.
