My Project

Earth Day is important. Schools expose students to conservation and how to keep our Earth healthy and clean. Teaching students paste reduction, conservation, gardening, and recycling is important.

Teaching kids how to grow plants, flowers and even greens is an important life skill.

It’s easy to tell your children you shouldn’t waste food, but creating the food themselves can help them understand why it’s so important to save it. Growing food from seeds is a long process, especially for young kids who don’t have much patience. After taking weeks and months to plant and grow anything, it can be easier to explain to students why it would be so wasteful to toss or destroy living things, like plans.

Community projects like this helps students understand the importance of the subject area and how to work together for the greater good.

This can also be a great way to teach kids about sharing with others.

Learning how plants grow can teach a lot about sustainability and the importance of caring for the environment. Teaching students how to plant flowers that will attract pollinators, like bees and butterflies can help them do the same in their neighborhoods. It is also the perfect way to explain about how the ecosystem relies on even the tiniest creatures to thrive and why it’s in our interest to protect them.Create a project about conservation and the environment then select the Climate & The Environment subject area. Please ensure accurate representation and select the corresponding subject area only if it aligns with your project.
