- 16. B.I.M.As a field trip we visited a shelter called B.I.M. There we were able to see how bad conditions were for some strays before they were rescued. After going to B.I.M., we realized that people need to help minimize the population of strays. Some shelters, unlike B.I.M., don’t help strays in need, and conditions are terrible. Stray dogs in Moscow is a huge problem that needs attention. Stray dogs right near the elementary field
- 17. Below you will find a letter we sent to B.I.M. after our visit March 26, 2010 Dear Sir, Thank you for letting us visit your shelter. The shelter is very clean and tidy. It doesn’t really smell a lot which is good. We think all the dogs were in good condition. It’s good that all dogs are sterilized. It’s very good that you let the dogs walk outside even though the space was not that big. You gave us a lot of helpful information that we will use during our exhibition. Most of the dogs were nice and friendly. If we could have an opportunity to come back we would love to. Sincerely, Julia, Marlene, and Rebecca
- 18. Action PlanOur action plan was to make a fictional diary of a stray dog to share the information we have learned and to raise awareness of the problem of strays in Moscow. The main character in the diary is a dog named Maxim. In the story Maxim is the one who is “writing” the diary. It talks about his everyday life. During the diary he meets a couple friends (stray dogs). After we wrote the book we made our very own illustrations.
- 19. Steps We Have Taken1st grade assembly- We read Diary of a Stray Dog at the first grade assembly. The first graders had a lot of questions and were very interested in what we had to say.2nd and 3rd grade assembly-We also read the Diary of a Stray Dog at the 2nd and 3rd grade assembly. We had a huge impact on them and someone even wrote a poem about it and another student continued the dog diary in his personal writing journal. One other student even wanted to purchase a copy of the book.
- 20. Steps We Will TakeAfter exhibition is over we will continue to work on publishing the book. We will create book order forms for: personal student orders each elementary classroom the libraryThe company we are using to publish our book is called Nationwide Learning.The cost to pre-order the book will be $15. 95 to cover the cost of publishing and shipping.
