Skeleton Mans Return

My students need a skeleton for our biology class. It can be used by other classes such as reading classes (a book all students love is Skeleton Man).

Mr. Nelson Heavener Elementary School
Heavener, OK Grades 6-8

I teach 6th-8th grade science and 7th grade reading, in a rural school district in Oklahoma.

We are a low income school with a growing Hispanic population. We have very few supplies to teach science with (most of the materials I have are purchased with money out of my own pocket, and teachers in Oklahoma are at the lowest paid educators in the U.S.).

In life science we study the human body and need a life size skeleton model for students to be able to correctly identify the major bones and ligament attachments.

With help from donors like you, my students will have the opportunity to experience hands on learning that would not be available to them otherwise. Thank You
