My students need hands-on materials, such as a Seismograph Model, fossil molds, and science games to help explore the history and geology of the Earth.
Oliver Wendell Holmes once said,"The mind stretched by a new idea, never goes back to its original dimensions." With your assistance, we can expand my students' minds!
I teach a K-8 science lab in a multicultural, inclusive urban public elementary school.
My students range in age from 5-13; They vary in academic levels and interests, but they all are enthusiastic about hands-on science.
They love to be actively learning.
My Project
The materials purchased will help support my students' developing understanding of geology and the geologic timeline. Students will learn about the history and geology of the Earth through creating and examining fossils (with the purchase of our new fossil casts and magnets), making interactive timelines (with support from our new posters and geology games),and going on an archeological dig ("digging" up our created fossils to learn about different eras).
Your donation will help strengthen my students' interest and understanding of geology.
Your support will help provide varied and rich science experiences that will help my students' minds grow!
