In order to create the outdoor classroom of our dreams and to be able to continue participating in fun hands-on science lessons our garden is in need of some supplies.
Listed below are common household or office items – they could be items you want to throw away, or perhaps something you don’t really use anymore. Before you make any decisions regarding these items… STOP – and think about the Cleveland Outdoor Classroom 🙂
“Didn’t they say they could use some glass jars?” Well, yes, in fact we did! Bring them on by!
You can find Ms.Emma in Room 103 where she will happily store your donated items to be used with your students at a future date!
Happy Gardening!
