My Project

My children love to water the plants in the classroom. One of the children asked why we don’t have a palm tree. I said we don’t see many palm trees in New York, and they are very hard to take care of. One of the children said, "Don’t worry, we will take care of the plant." I told him I will try to write for a real palm tree and also a fake one to decorate classroom. We are going to have a celebration and celebrate all the children in the class and looking forward to the summer season with a palm tree. We want to bring some warmth into the classroom during the cold months. Thank you for taking the time to read our proposal.
