<p>To make the «Interview with an Animal» more engaging, let the kids <em>become</em> the animal on screen while they speak.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iIH0DWYJa8tb94mTSZkLn-DS5ucS8SEBVUeRLx9EP7E/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iIH0DWYJa8tb94mTSZkLn-DS5ucS8SEBVUeRLx9EP7E/edit?usp=sharing</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>App:</strong> <strong>ChatterPix Kids</strong>. You take a photo of an animal, draw a line for the mouth, and record up to 30 seconds of audio. The animal «talks» back!</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Why it works:</strong> It removes the «stage fright» of being on camera and makes the «Interview» incredibly fun to watch.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You can hear the interviews in the above link:</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Each participating school selects a native or culturally significant animal.</em></p>
<p>It’s time for each class to create a drawing of the animal that represents the country assigned to them!</p>
<p>Please follow the steps below carefully:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open the Google Doc provided.</li>
<li>In the left column, write the name of your class’s chosen animal — make sure it is an indigenous (native) animal of your assigned country.</li>
<li>In the right column, upload a clear photo of children s drawing of that animal.</li>
<li>Before uploading, please remove the background from your drawing so that only the animal is visible. You can use online tools such as <a href="https://www.remove.bg/">remove.bg</a> or <a href="https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/remove-background">Adobe Express Background Remover</a>.</li>
<li>Ensure your image is neat, well-lit, and represents your chosen animal as clearly as possible.</li>
</ol>
<p>⚠️ Important:<br />
Each participating class or school must choose a different animal, so please check the list before selecting yours to avoid duplicates.</p>
<p>When everyone has uploaded their drawings, we’ll have a wonderful collection showing the diversity of animals from around the world — each one proudly represented by your class!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
