Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our students are caring and curious. Help us teach them through doing. We will be planting vegetable to take home, grow in the classroom and in our outdoor garden. We planted a Lima Bean plant in November and have been watching it grow ever since, it's now time to plant it outside. Come help us expand our learning beyond our life sciences class.

Give them the opportunity to watch vegetables grow from seed to harvest.

We want to continue to plant the seeds of learning while watching our hard work germinate and bloom.

Grades 6-8
