Mrs. Robb from Portland OR is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

We Love Rocks!

My students need rocks samples, books, and hands-on activities.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I teach first grade in a high poverty, urban school. Also, 50% of our students are English Language Learners from over 20 different countries.

Our district requires a unit about rocks, but provides very little resources for the study of the unit. The students want to see and touch interesting rocks.

These books, rock samples, and learning activity kits will help my students understand Earth science. Touching and interacting with the rocks we are learning about will enhance our learning.

Your help will make it possible for my students in increase their academic language and understanding of Earth science. They will be so excited to have all of these wonderful books and rocks to learn from.
