My Project

My learners are so exploratory and increase their learning with hands on stem projects. The Duo-Scope Microscope, Hydroponic Growing System and other materials will increase my learners experiences and growth in creating and growing gardens and plants on their own. They can establish what these plants or herbs are, pick out the seeds and watch them and help them grow. They will then be able to use their own individual microscope to view and explore the plant stems/veins and growth system.

My learners learn based upon sensory and hands on STEM projects/experiences.

Supporting them in this process to develop new skills and learning new life skills will support them in selecting goals and developing technical skills to increase their productivity in long life development.
