Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Earth Day should be every day! April 22nd is the specific day we celebrate and appreciate the planet we live on. In the Science Lab we learn about the planet and its inhabitants all throughout the year! Helping students make meaningful connections with organisms that we share the planet is a great way to make learning fun!

3D pens will be used to create models of animals and plants on Earth that they can take home with them and remember!

As students study one particular flora or fauna, they will have the opportunity to put their learning into practice by making these 3D objects. A wonderful Earth Day memento.

Thank you so much for your support in advance!
