My name is Mrs. Porter and I'm an 8th grade science teacher. I am a 3rd year teacher and am proud of the young scientists who grace my classroom. Unfortunately, my school is unable to provide funding for the materials necessary to do hands-on activities that engage students and give them the opportunity to experience real science. This is truly devastating because these students are missing out on the chance to get that spark for science. These are the individuals who, in the future, could be treating our illnesses (doctors), protecting our environment (biologists), designing life-saving equipment (engineers), and taking us to space (astronauts). Do we want to deny these students the chance to be everything they could be? Of course not! That's why I spend nearly $1000 on my students every school year. It is an investment in not only their future, but also mine. It is an investment I am willing to making, but one I would be happy to share with those who are able. I would love to raise enough money to purchase the classroom basics and materials to incorporate hands-on science exploration activities.
