Each year, there is a theme for our classroom science content area. This year it was insects. Next year, our plan is to learn about life in the fish tank. Special education students learn best when there are hands-on experiences to grasp content. For life science, it would be more exciting if we get to study animals within our own classroom. In order to properly care for these animals (goldfish and guppies), I would like to provide our class with one fully functioning aquarium so that we can observe animal behaviors appropriately. This aquarium would not only assist in providing a way for my students to observe and study animals, but it would also be an opportunity to model how to properly care for these animals.
