My Project
Aloha.
The materials that I am requesting is part of a larger project in helping students learn how to be sustainable and healthy in Hawaii.
The materials requested will be used to create a climate controlled micro green environment. This project will allow students the opportunity to practice NGSS aligned scientific inquiry, while growing healthy foods.
Students will take part in setting up their own lab growing setup and setting up the experiments to create optimal growing environments for the microgreens they are growing. The materials that are being requested will all be reusable for many years and will impact at minimum 150 students per academic year.
Along with scientific inquiry, students will learn about food sustainability in Hawaiʻi and making healthy food choices that are linked to NGSS concepts like macromolecules.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
