My Project

My students are an amazing group of natural scientists. They are curious, observant, and great questioners. They love learning about new plants and animals and caring for them.

Students must be exposed to living things if we hope for them to feel connected to our world and care for the environment.

Having carnivorous plants, cacti, succulents, ferns, and snails will instantly grab their attention and spark their curiosity. Not only will the students get to observe them, but they will also help care for these plants and animals. This will build responsibility and appreciation.
