My Project

We are a rural public school with all students receiving free lunch. They have limited experiences outside of their community. Most have blue-collar parents with limited knowledge of the importance of science. I would like to encourage my students to have futures in the science field. These materials will aid student understanding of growing plants and embryology. Many of my students have never experienced the hatching of a chick or enjoyed watching plants grow. These materials will bring real world experiences to studying parts of a plant and the life cycle of a chick.
