My Project

Bringing science into the general classroom helps to expand the students' general knowledge of our environment. Allowing students to explore science on their own into greater depths births a desire in a child's heart and turns into a lifelong desire to learn more.

Bring science into a classroom to help develop the desire to become science-minded and grow the love inside the student to want to explore more and to respect the world around them.

Science is fun if it is provided in a way that allows the students to explore and the requested bird skeleton and insect x-ray cards will help them to do just that!
