My Project
My students are naturally curious. They ask questions about everything around them. I want to continue to foster that curiosity by promoting them all to detectives. I want to show them just how exciting the world around them can be once they get out and observe, question and discover more of it.
The thermometers, clipboards, and pencils will allow my students to become weather detectives and observe the different patterns in weather and differences in things such as clouds, wind and precipitation in the air and how that affects the way we dress and move around in our everyday lives.
I want to create problem solvers and critical thinkers of the world around them and help them to realize their place in the systems that exist around them.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
