My Project

The resources will produce materials that can enrich the lives of the children in our community. We are going to add a touch of our green thumbs to allow us to produce a garden at our school and in our community.

Our class is going to be able to share these tools with other classes as we have a “Buddy System” that we have been doing projects with all year.

I would like everyone to take a journal of their plants during the summer and be able to share it with their teachers next year.

This proposed action would be in effect immediately. We will start it in school and, at the end of the year, be able to take it home as a special summer project.
