Mrs. Leslie from Henderson TN is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

A Fresh Start

Help me give my students dry erase boards and STEM egg drop kits to improve student participation and enhance learning in science. My students enjoy hands-on learning and engaging activities.

My Project

My students must be able to keep up with the demands of education. The dry erase whiteboards will provide them with the ability to respond individually to questioning and will also allow me the opportunity to assess their understanding. The Egg Drop kit will give them an extra boost in hands-on experiments in the classroom. My students are very energetic and enthusiastic about science.

I am new to this school district, this grade level, and this subject area.

This project will provide me with the means of creating an exciting experience and learning through project-based assignments. My students enjoy being creative and demonstrating their understanding through projects that include showcasing their artistic sides.
