Critters in the Classroom
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gonzalez's classroom raised $302
This project is fully funded
My Project
I want to give all of my students an up close and personal experience with insects in the classroom.
We will observe life cycles of butterflies, lady bugs, and even praying mantis.
I especially like that these offer small individual containers for each child to see up close the life cycles of these insects. We will learn about the life cycles of each and learn how these particular insects can be beneficial to our environment. We will also learn about native and non-native species and the importance of knowing the difference.
This classroom project was brought to life by General Motors
