Grace's Senior Project Presentation

When we heard that Miss Jaia, Grace's teacher from eighth grade, was returning to Seasons of Seven to teach Class Twelve, we knew that Grace needed to be part of the class again! She chose to attend for two of the blocks. The first was about Faust/Goethe and Color Theory an the second was the Senior Project block. These blocks were running back to back starting in February which was perfect timing for her! 

Grace chose to create a pollinator hotel for her senior project. A few years ago when she was considering doing the Gold Award for Girl Scouts she had thought she would build a pollinator hotel for that. However, since she decided not to persue the Gold Award she knew that her senior project was the pefect time to finally make this pollinator hotel happen. With support and guidance from Dave the pollinator hotel finally was created and this past Thursday Grace gave a stellar presentation during the final class for this block! Below are a few of the pictures I took of her presentation. 

And, of course, she had to paint pollinators and flowers on her nails in honor of this day! xo 

Final Preparations

For her senior project Grace chose to design and build a pollinator hotel. Above is the watercolor she painted in order to help her figure out what she wanted the hotel to look like. Dave was a huge support throughout this process, as he helped her figure out which materials she would need and how to construct it. Along with her pollinator hotel, she also put together a PowerPoint slide deck for her presntation and wrote a research paper about the importance of pollinators and what people can do to keep all pollinators from becoming extinct. Such a perfect senior project for our girl who has been smitten with pollinators since she first watched Wings of Life when she was like eight years old! xo
