Kid President’s Socktober inspires students to donate a pair of socks to others in need. If you can, please bring a new pair of socks and place in the donation box for our community center.
This small act of love also inspired this month’s creativity challenge. So take out those socks you’ve never worn or the forlorn socks in the laundry room with no partners and whip up a cute sock animal!
Challenge: Research an animal of your choice. Once you have researched and learned about the animal, transform an ordinary sock into that animal.
Entries should include:
-
- Student’s name and teacher’s name.
- Name of the animal.
- 3 facts about the animal.
- 1 question you still wonder/have about the animal.
- Sock animals must not exceed 12 inches in height nor width.
- Try top research an animal that is different to inspire others to learn something new. Check out the baby quoll as an example.
Due Date: All entries must be submitted before October 22nd.
Entry Form: Here is the Sock Challenge Entry Form.
Creativity is seeing the world in a new way.
