My Project

Middle school students are just beginning to dive into science in my classroom. Help me give them a classroom that is full of life and excitement. A classroom they are excited to come to every day.

I want to surround my sixth graders with aquariums to ignite learning and enhance the classroom environment.

These Easy-View Aquariums and Aquarium light up tanks will do just that.

I work really hard to make an exciting environment for all of the many different types of learners I have. We build classroom community and empathy by taking care of the critters in our science classroom. We enjoy naming each of the animals and investigating what they need to thrive, just like find what my students need to thrive. It's the small touches that bring a classroom to life and make it inviting.
