Growing Our Green Thumbs!

Help me give my students an Palram Hybrid Greenhouse where they can let their green thumbs grow!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brannon's classroom raised $707

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students come from very diverse backgrounds, and each has their own obstacles that they are trying to overcome. Hands-on work can help bring us together as a class. Even though I teach 5th and 6th grade, my students' abilities range from 1st to 6th grade. We have been expanding our understanding of nature and all that it has to provide for us.

We hope to continue to expand and have a positive impact on the environment.

Not only are we learning about the environment, we are also learning skills that we can use throughout our lives. By adding the Palram Hybrid greenhouse we will be able to learn and grow!

My Project

Help me help my students recognize the importance of giving back to our planet. By utilizing a greenhouse my students will be able to learn and grow along with their seedlings.

My students take great pride in creating a reading garden every year for all of our students at school to enjoy.

By growing our own plants, we will be able to learn about plants with hands on learning.

Our students are eager to learn and become more aware of how they can give back not only to their school but to the earth. Help us as we grow our green thumbs!
