Help me give my students real live experiences with natural phenomena around them. The terrariums, weather, climate, and ecosystems are an integral part of the life cycles we will learn about in our science.

My Project
the socioeconomic status of my students is somewhat crippling to their learning abilities and experiences. Many of them have not acquired prior knowledge to the life cycles, environmental factors, and ecosystems. I want to be able to let my students explore the science with various hands on manipulatives. I want to let them observe and experience the growth process in all concepts. It will help them have a complete understanding of the various ecosystems with animal and plant life. I plan to utilize these materials to expand my science lessons instead of paper pencil materials.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
