This course was engaging, challenging and informative. I feel like I am taking a lot of knowledge away from this course that I can't wait to use with my students.

The lessons and activities were organized, well-thought out and easy to follow. Would recommend for an Elementary Teacher. I am HS Science and it was more difficult for me to make lessons for students at this age.

I really enjoyed the class. It was very informative, and I was able to pull multiple activities I could use in my own classroom! Since completing the class, I have developed several activities to teach students the parts of a flower, parts of a leaf, and how plants have relationships symbiotically with organisms in the echo system.

SCI - 902 is an awesome class. Mr. Harms hands-on approach to all the assignments made teaching about plants a great experience for me and my students. I looked forward to teaching the experiments and the positive results I saw from my students was amazing. We all learned so much about plants. Thank you!!!!

It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed taking a course that focused on my passion, plants. I think a lot of these activities will be easily implemented during remote learning and I can't wait to try them out. Many of the activities are easily implemented and don't take much time to set up. Also, the activities can be easily modified to better fit your class's need.

Mr. Harms course on Plants in the classroom was wonderful and created in me a desire to carry this on in each grade level that I teach. It was amazing to see the excitement and passion in each student to plant flowers, learn more about trees and plants, and to carry this further into caring for our planet and what we can do to make this world better! I thoroughly enjoyed it and so did the students!

I thoroughly enjoyed taking the Plants and Animals coursework with Dr. Harms. If found the experiments and experiences to be challenging, yet useful and appropriate for my students. I found Dr. Harms to be very helpful. He was also very accessible. I also found your support staff to be helpful to me. I am happy I chose Fresno Pacific to complete the credits I needed.
