My Project

Our first grade classes would love to hatch a little bit of adventure on our grade level. We have eighty little scientists on our grade level. We are very excited to watch our chicks hatch and see our butterflies change right before our eyes! We love to learn about science and the world around us. We are requesting Egg Incubator, Butterfly Growing Kit and Books on animals, including Life Cycle Stages!

We have been studying about lifecycles and what better way to learn than by watching and learning with a hands on experience!

We are a grade level that loves to go above and beyond to learn all that we can about our environment and the world around us. We cannot wait to watch these sweet little chicks make their way into the world!

Thank you so much for your help with our project! We can't make our goal without your help! Your donations to our project mean a lot to us and we will learn so much from this experience!
