We are in the middle of our garden unit and we have had live worms and caterpillars growing and we have been able to use our new tools to add to the excitement each day. The impact of you helping my students is greatly felt because I teach in a lower income school and we do not receive much money to buy the extra fun items you have supplied to us.
