The Living Wall Project
Verified Non-Profit
$100
$160 goal
The Description
With these funds I will help the students to build a "Living Wall" which is a wooden structure that will be fastened to the wall that the students will be able to plant several different types of seeds and some plants to observe and interact with throughout many lessons and the school year.
These students deserve this for so many reasons. This experience provides them the opportunity to work as a team, plan strategically to anticipate future growth, and responsibility. Along with many skills that this helps to facilitate, there are also many students who have never taken a science course before so this could provide a very engaging and impressionable first science lab. These students deserve the opportunity to use tangible science and observe their hard work throughout the school year. This will also employ responsibility as it will need to be maintained. It will serve to build relationships with their teammates and the confidence of the individual. These students deserve to feel good and confident in their abilities to build something with tangible results, as well as develop themselves as scientist.

Back Up Plan
If I do not meet my goal I will purchase the plants and we will create a small garden in the back of the classroom that will remain in the corner of the lab. This will remain a steady project for the students to participate in planting and tracking the plant's growth.
