🌍✨ In celebration of Earth Day, our 7th-grade science students got their hands dirty – literally! They worked together to create seed bombs as part of our lesson on ecosystems, plant growth, and the environment. These tiny, biodegradable balls are packed with seeds that can help restore local habitats, promote biodiversity, and give back to the Earth. 🌱💚
By making seed bombs, students are learning about the interconnectedness of living organisms and how humans can play a positive role in sustaining our planet. This hands-on project connects to South Carolina’s 7th grade science standards, including concepts like the importance of biodiversity, the role of plants in ecosystems, and the impact of human activities on the environment.
Great job, students! Keep up the amazing work in caring for our world. 🌏🌸
