My Project

Please help me give my students a way to foster their reading skills by allowing my students to each have a book to read during instruction. Our class has worked so hard this year on reading and they love having books in their hands. My students will use the class habitat to investigate the life cycle of a butterfly in our classroom. This habitat will allow my students to see firsthand how the life cycles change by making everyday observations. We will be taking daily notes on these observations so that the students can use them for future use.

One of my goals for this project is for my students to grow a love of science!

My students have worked hard all year and deserve to do this project. The items in the project will allow my students to enjoy a fun project towards the end of the year for all of their hard work. This project will allow them to experience an academic project, which is something we do not get to do often.
