My Project

I absolutely love seeing my students exploring learning with hands-on experiments. Help me provide flower pots, seed packets, and potting soil to bring science to life within the classroom environment.

It would be such a wonderful experience to give my students an opportunity to participate in this science project.

Their expressions as they watch the progress of these seeds grow would be really cool as a teacher. We would incorporate science throughout this growing lesson by recording the progress of our seed/plant growth. Once we are finished with the planting and observing, the students would be able to take these projects home and continue their observations!
