My Project

Get ready, green thumbs! In our classroom garden adventure, my students will use special soils to help plants thrive. Succulent soil is perfect for our spiky friends who love dry homes. Indoor plant soil will give our leafy pals the cozy, rich earth they need to grow big and strong. Seed starting soil is like a soft bed, perfect for tiny seeds to wake up and sprout. With colorful planter pots, they'll create cozy homes for each plant.

Together, we’ll watch our garden grow, learn about nature, and have tons of fun getting our hands dirty!
