Classroom Pets

Help me give my students class pets to help them study different environments.

My Project

My classroom currently has several classroom pets including a bearded dragon, a crested gecko, a leopard gecko, a chameleon, and fish. Help me support our classroom pets with better environments while also providing different environments about students can learn.

Students will learn different environments and ecosystems that reptiles live in.

Students will also be learning about how to maintain and grow plants as we learn about ecosystems. Students have also been learning about animal behaviors and populations within different organisms. Students are able to see in real life different types of reptiles and their different environments within the classroom.

The animals within the classroom helps create the environment that helps kids become more motivated to learn about life science.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
