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
Please help us attain the materials needed to have a live bioactive vivarium habitat for our very loved bearded dragon, classroom pet! The learning opportunities the bioactive habitat will provide for us will be endless! We will learn about plants and animals, symbiotic relationships, research animals and their natural habitats, all while making scientific observations!
My scholars love our classroom pet and they love science! Teaching the students about the bioactive ecosystem with bugs, soil, clay pebbles, live plants, and rocks will bring so much excitement and elevate our engagement levels! Thank you for taking the time to read about our project that will instill a love for our environment and why it is important to take care of nature! Thank you!
Donations to this project are now being matched, thanks to support from An Anonymous Supporter.
