FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kayla's classroom raised $177

My Project

What better way to end the year than to release your very own butterflies into the sky?

Help my students learn how to analyze and chart exciting observations they see during science class!

The students will have an exciting, engaging class pet to look forward to seeing every day, while also learning how to make observations like a real scientist!

Since all science standards need to be covered before state testing, I want to spend the last quarter doing a long science project using cumulative skills and standards that were covered during the year.
