My Project

At the end of each school year, we learn about plants and animals needs as well as habitats.

As the year closes, when we have finished all our 2nd grade standards and tests, we do projects to showcase all we have learned.

Before we have to turn in our computers, the students spend time researching different animals and their habitats and choose one to focus on. This project allows them to use their creativity and skills to create an animal and its habitat. It is so fun to see them engaged and learning.
