My students are wonderfully curious, budding scientists. Our difficulty is lack of resources. Over 95% of our students are economically disadvantaged and have not yet had the opportunity to explore the world beyond their small neighborhood. They have a fascination that makes teaching them a joy but Science is still a mystery to most. My goal is to help them not only understand the "hows" of life but to give them the courage to continue asking questions and seeking the answers. Science is the study of life around us. Although they may be secluded from many of the experiences we rejoiced in as children, that does not dim their curiosity. Please help me give them not only a much better understanding of how things work, but the desire to CONTINUE learning and to CONTINUE asking questions. These children are our future and I hope to encourage them with tools and lessons that make the enigmatic more concrete.
