FTPPO- Student Committee
34 students in grades Kindergarten - 5th participated in this committee! They worked in teams of 4 with a student leader. So far, they have:
- Visited the outdoor planters
- Learned about perennials vs annual, native vs exotic, and the many ways native perennials help the local fauna
- Researched wildflowers in a variety of books
- Wrote information on a chart with names and STEM connections
- Confirmed Plants of the Southwest sell the wildflowers in either plants or seeds
- Share their findings with other teams
- Completed Field Work at Plants of the Southwest- purchased native, perennial wildflowers to plant in the planters
- Planted & watered the wildflowers in four of the planters and in the Children's Garden!
Next step, watching them grow!
