Owl Pellets

My Project

I have some of the best students in Arizona. Students who are learning to have hands on and engaging in learning in Science. We are learning about ecosystems and all the relationships within those ecosystems.

These supplies will help to reinforce and give students a learning that is real world and fun to do.

Covid has affected all of these students in many ways and learning to work together in labs helps students to regain some of the social learning that was lost. Students learn that as a team work is easier and they are not alone.
