My Project

By the time our early learners get to our age, the world will be a much different place.

If students don't learn about the Earth and its environment, they won't know or care about things like global warming, pollution, animal extinction and recycling!

If they don't know or care about those things, our Earth could be in big trouble in the near future! By providing science materials that teach about our environment, we can build the interest, care and urgency that is needed to make real change, now and in the future.
