Campus Herb Poster Builder

Campus Herb Poster Builder

One child, one herb, one poster that actually goes up.

The audience is real, which is the whole design. A poster nobody sees gets six year old effort. A poster that goes on the garden fence where the whole school walks past gets considerably more.

The frame asks for the name, a drawing, what it smells like, and what it is for. Four elements is right at this age.

The page has the poster template, the herb list, and a display plan. Put them up at child height. Ours were at adult height for a term and the only people who read them were adults, which entirely missed the point.
