My Students

My students live in lower socioeconomic neighborhoods and they require support and resources for learning. My students work hard and they love to explore and learn. One of the biggest challenges we are facing is providing opportunities for students to have hands on learning experiences in the classroom.

My students need a tank and supplies to help with the Axolotl's that are growing in the classrooms.

These amphibians are allowed to be in our classroom with the licensing requirements. We are in need of supplies to help raise and learn all about the Axolotl.

These resources will be provided for students to use while in their classrooms.

My Project

In the preschool, we are allowed to have the Axolotl Amphibian. While taking care of the Axolotl, she has produced a clutch of eggs that were are going to be responsible for growing and caring into adulthood. The students will learn many different standards from the growing and caring for the Axolotl's life cycle.

Our classroom needs aquarium supplies to help grow and care for the hatching Axolotl Amphibians.

These supplies will be used for students to help tend and care from egg to adulthood. These specific supplies are needed to be able to successfully hatch and care for the Axolotls. These supplies will help with a successful growth and learning process for the youngest of learners in our school district.
