Mrs. Cooper from Dunn NC is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Concentrated Science Investigation (CSI)

My project needs one Kemtec Master Forensics Science CSI Kit.

  • $931 goal

This project expired on April 27, 2008.

I am a eighth grade teacher at a title one inner city middle school. Many of my students show very little if any at all about science. The only time I can get any exciting response from them is when we are discussing CSI or medical mysteries. Many of my students asked me to set up a forensics or CSI type lab. When we discuss this type of science they always refer back to TV. I would love to give them some real life experiences with this Kemtec Master Forensics Kit. This material will provide the students with hands on investigations of real world scenarios. They will analyze hair, fingerprints,and blood samples. This will give the students the opportunity to use the scientific method to figure out how to solve a problem. Many of my students only have experiences that come from the TV, with your help I want to give my students a gift that will last forever, a real life hands on experience. I am thanking you in advance for helping me give my students an experience of a lifetime.
