My Project

My students are so eager to explore and learn. They love to be able to have hands on experiences to develop their knowledge and collaborate with their peers. Planting seeds, watching them grow and reading about plants will be a great experience for the students to build science, writing, reading and social skills. They will be able to record predictions and observations about their plants in science journals. They can also write how to stories teaching others the process of how to grow a plant after practicing the process using these materials.
