Chicken Coops and Greenhouses

Help me give my students the chance to learn about small animals and plants with the chicken houses and greenhouses.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Benson's classroom raised $678

This project is fully funded

My Project

The students will learn how to raise their own small animals through the agricultural program at Brookesmith ISD. They will use the chicken coops to raise chickens and bunnies to show at the stockshows. The greenhouses will be to help with learning about horticulture at Brookesmith ISD.

Greenhouses and chicken coops will allow the students to gain hands on experience they might not be able to if they were only able to learn in a classroom.

The students will learn by doing in this new agricultural program that is being started at Brookesmith ISD.
