Welcome
Welcome to Wesley and Dave’s blog, Hipp To Be Green, which will chronicle our experience working through our NJEA Hipp Grant project, “Solar Environmental Lab.”
This blog will hopefully help people find and write their own grants, give insights into ways to go about it, advise about things to avoid, and provide an ongoing update on our projects.
We’ll share ideas and best practices we developed after our project last year on wind turbines which we successfully completed in May 2008. We’re still working on expanding that project and using the information we collected.
But we’re not just grant writers, we are teachers trying to juggle the demands of curriculum standards, classroom management, motivating students, and the project.
Keep reading our blog to learn from our mistakes and our successes.
