My Students

Have you ever have questions about nature and get stuck JUST reading a text book? Students deserve a hands on approach to learning. These experiences will allow them to go through life appreciating changes they can and cannot see in nature. Please help!

My students like to ask questions.

They like to infer, predict, build, change, and redirect their thinking. They prefer hands on learning approach to experience authentic life long experiences. We have students that don't get to experience amazing changes in nature.

My Project

My students will have the opportunity to directly experience the change of nature that not many get to observe. We will log changes and create illustrations that will allow the students to document changes right before their eyes. This will be our project until the conclusion of the school year.

This is an important project because the students will be able to take this experience to the next level as they build on their thinking throughout their schooling.

This will build on next years benchmarks as well.
