I teach an aspiring group of Kindergarteners! About 50 percent of the families in our community are high-need.

I teach an aspiring group of wonderful Kindergarteners who are eager to learn. The obstacle that we face is, when it comes to science, we have very few materials.

The resources my class needs are; a weather station with window markers, life cycle specimens, color paddles, eye droppers, magnifying glass, magnets, microscope, five senses game, and science floor puzzles. My students will benefit from these resources through interactive learning. Students learn more through personal experience and hands on interaction. These items will allow my students to learn science in a new and VERY EXCITING way!

Your help will ensure that my students receive a quality education through science. Learning is meant to be fun and exciting! Please help me take science to the next level for my Kindergarteners.
