My Project

The instruction of science has unfortunately not been top priority since the impact of Covid-19. Teachers struggled teaching many subjects virtually, unfortunately, affecting our students. Science is a subject that is not easy to teach when one can not experience or experiment with the subject matter. Hands-on learning is so important for our students. For example, getting to watch an egg develop day by day. My students will be able to touch and see the development first hand. They experience the wonder and joy of watching the chicks hatch. They will be able to witness new life coming into the world! We will also be learning about many other life cycles with the other learning tools listed.
