This project expired on April 24, 2020.

My Students

Our students come from five different elementary schools and the diversity of the school is amazing! The diversity in our school provides us with a unique opportunity to reach students from many different backgrounds.

Coming from a rural farming community, students truly enjoy learning about things that directly impact their neighborhoods and lives.

By providing hands-on learning opportunities, students can gain a deeper understanding of the concepts being presented. Students are more engaged, and excited to participate in their new learning adventure.

My Project

This project will bright hands-on learning to our students while teaching them both how the water cycle works, and the importance of conserving it.

Students will create a working model of the water cycle and see how the water they drank for breakfast could be the same water a dinosaur once drank!

How's that for crazy!

By allowing students to see first hand how their actions can impact the water cycle and our local watersheds, they will develop a better sense of the importance of water to their daily lives. Creating good stewards of our environment will benefit everyone in the future.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
