Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

As an elementary school science teacher, I am always trying to incorporate hands-on inquiry based activities and projects. Our “For The Birds” project allows students to collect information by observing and classifying birds and their behavior. In addition, students get to measure bird seed consumption over a period of time while noting seasonal changes. Students would be using laptop computers to collect, store, and analyze data collected. Two platform bird feeders and two branch hangers would be needed in order to set up the bird habitat. 109 fourth grade students would participate in this project. It correlates with the animal adaptation unit, which is part of the fourth grade curriculum. I appreciate any funds that I may receive to help fund this educational project. Thank you, Gail Nowell
