My Students

My students come to me from all different backgrounds and environments. Some are from two-parent homes, single family, foster homes, and some are being raised by grandparents. A positive environment is a must in a school Every day I try to make sure that each child is greeted with a smile and a good morning because that can totally make a child's day.

My students are always ready to start the day and see what excitement the day is going to bring them.

My Project

I am asking for three butterfly life cycle kits and five copies of Velma Gratch and the Way Cool Butterfly. I plan to use the butterfly kits in the Spring when my students are learning about the animal life cycles. After reading about Velma Gratch and the butterfly, my students will use these butterfly kits in our classroom to watch the daily the life cycle of the butterfly. The kids will be able observe this process (caterpillar to butterfly) daily and write about their observations.

This project will excitement and science into my classroom and it will improve my classroom because my students will be able to experience the life cycle of the butterfly first hand.

This project will will change the lives of my students because they will be able to have a hands-on science experience that some students might not have the ability to experience in nature.
