My Students

Help my students engage in some "fish" behavior. My students want to be engaged in exploring how the world works! Help us explore the underwater world with this project!

My students are budding scientists who want to find answers to their questions about aquatic life!

We are a small public school in Indiana. I have 25 fantastic young students with minds eager to learn. We are looking to fulfill more than just Science standards. We want to investigate and develop thinking skills that will last LONG after we finish the First grade.

My Project

We have many activities planned that use the aquarium as a place to consider what plants and animals need to stay alive. Students will observe, record, and discuss the activity in our aquarium. They will even have a chance to design their own fish and write a story using what they learned from observing the aquarium. We plan on loving our fish friends and creating a sense of responsibility and critical thinking!

Please help our classroom become a place of scientific discovery!

We are eager to learn more about our world. The students will also develop critically thinking and hone their powers of observation.
