Synopsis

In this interactive activity, students get to choose animal, weather, and character stickers in different settings to make a scene. Many of the stickers add sounds (e.g., a chirping bird, the sound of rain) to the scene as well.
As students add stickers to the scene, the narrator asks questions and provides facts about the sights and sounds associated with the sticker.
