Mrs. Miller from San Diego CA is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Science Fair Project 2009

My students need 150 binders and 150 presentation boards.

  • $1,080 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I teach 7th & 8th grade science students at inner city low income school in California.

All of my students will be participating in the Greater Science & Engineering Fair 2010. I have two 7th grade and two 8th grade classes for a total of 150 students.

In order to participate my students each need a binder and presentation board. Every student will be required to select a topic and conduct an experiment using the scientific method. Without the basic tools(binder & board) my students would not be qualified to compete.

Your help will ensure all my students, regardless of family income, be able to compete with their peers at the Science Fair. Our school had 7 out of 35 students last year selected to go downtown and compete with all the other schools in the area. This was a very valuable & exciting experience and for each of them. This coming year with 150 students competing I"m hoping we will be able to include more students.
