My Project
With the glo fish aquarium setup we will be able to fully immerse our students in learning through our Pet Study. During the Pet Study, our students will be encouraged to examine, care for, and write about pets.
Students in our Head Start setting will benefit greatly from hands-on and daily interactive activities with a real-life pet!
Showing our students how to care for animals as well as encouraging them to write about exciting occurrences in the classroom ensure high-end engagement and the best possible learning environment we can provide.
Other items included in this project would further facilitate and extend these interactions and spark their curiosity about this Pet Study.
Nearly all 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
