Grant Award

1st grade received a grant for $900 from the Virginia Beach Education Foundation and underwritten by Lifetouch. The money is for purchasing digital cameras so that the students can take pictures of seasonal changes, patterns in nature, and explorations of the Frog Bog outdoor classroom. The pictures will be used to help the students to make a stronger connection with their studies and their writting. We will also be using the cameras to create our Earth Day celebration presentation. I cannot wait to see how their perspective changes as they look at their own pictures and focus in on pieces of their surroundings. What would you look for in nature?
