My Project

This project will help me show the students the importance of nurturing a living thing. Each of my gifted students will be able to plant their own plants and seeds while learning the process. This will also give them a sense of responsibility for the importance we have towards our Mother Earth.

They will learn the vital role they play in keeping this living creature alive and what it will give back to them.

The students will have the opportunity to work outside in the greenhouse instead of behind a laptop. This will give each of them an opportunity to grow along with their plants.

Grades 3-5
