What wonderful creatures live in your backyard? The week will be devoted to learning about the native plants and animals that live right in your neighborhood! Students will learn how to make their backyards great wildlife habitats and how they can help family can go green! There will be lots of fun crafts including making recycled paper, bird feeders and bird houses, and making reusable grocery bags. We will also be growing native plants to take home and plant in the garden!
