My Project

Our STEAM club has been invited for the third time to World Environmental Day. Our table has been about “Saving the Pollinators” where we have been giving out seeds that attract butterflies and bees to support the environment.

Our goal this year remains the same, but we want to change up what kind of seeds (we handed out all the seeds from last year) we give out that will attract the bees and butterflies.

We will also make butterfly and bee shrinky dink pins that will be handed out at the event.

Attendance last year was bigger than the year before, so we need to increase the number of envelopes of seeds we have to give out.
