Third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade students participated in the National Fire Safety Poster Contest again this year.
This is a great learning experience for the students as they explore graphic design, lettering and visual communications.
It’s also a great opportunity for students to learn about fire safety and to design a poster that teaches others about safety.
The contest is open to all of the students in the Willard area, and I focus the contest for the 3rd-6th grade students.
Learning lettering and design is a large part of this project, and it’s great to see how students develop their skills each year they participate.
