My students need a soil quality testing kit for AP Environmental Science.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
Students need real life practical experiences to enhance their understanding of the natural world. They see soil everyday but do not understand the properties that make up the soil. They need this soil quality test kit to experience hands-on activities to determine the properties in the soil.
The majority of the students at my school come from a low socioeconomic background.
We live in a military community with a highly transient population. School becomes a safe haven for many of the students in my school. I strive to make my classroom a fun "getaway" for my students. They are allowed to experience science in a new way that many have not had before. Science comes alive in my class, and the students can see things in a new light. AP Environmental Science is a new course in our county that I will be teaching for the first time. Enthusiasm is brewing for the students enrolled in this course. The students are excited to learn with hands-on activities but need the resources to be able to do this!
Since the course has never been taught in the county, we do not have the materials that we need to start the hands-on learning process. We are in need of a soil test kit. This kit will allow students the opportunity to see what the properties in the soil are and extrapolate that knowledge to the problems in our society with soil composition. They will be able to see how the soil affects the world that we live in.
Students are in dire need of hands-on activities in science.
They need to see that science is fun and can be an intriguing career field. My AP Environmental Science students are eager to learn; all they need is the resources to make that possible. The students will be appreciative of the donation made to our classroom! Thanks in advance!
