Help Us Win!!!

From now until November 10th, our class is racing to win a $200 cash prize and flip camera to improve science project based learning in our classroom. I applied for this grant through the website Learning.com and the We Are Teachers program. Our class project is found on their website and can be voted for there. My idea, Cultivating Greatness, Inner City Style, is all about students growing their own vegetable garden using an interesting gardening system called the AeroGarden.

"AeroGardens make gardening simple. They tell you when it's time to add water and nutrients and even turns grow lights on and off to simulate the sun. AeroGardens ensure fast, healthy plant growth by ensuring perfect amounts of light, water and nutrients, with no dirt, no weeds, and no mess." - www. aerogarden.com

If our class can rank in the top 5 of the 182 projects that applied, we win enough money to buy our own AeroGarden and get the flip camera to record progress. I know that if our class were to be granted the opportunity to use this system we would be entering a whole new chapter of learning and discovery in our third grade year. Please help us!
