My Project

Our school is in the heart of Prince George County, Virginia! I teach such a hardworking, kind-hearted group of diverse students that has a heavy military population. They are problem solvers, critical thinkers, and world changers!

With this project, I am asking for math and science materials that will promote a love of learning and exploration.

Our Virginia standards have a focus on plants and animals and with this project I am asking for materials that would help my students learn about them first hand! We are asking for a classroom greenhouse and a butterfly kit to see what we are learning up close and personal!
