A Science Research Library!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Gorby's classroom raised $380
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students are so curious about the world around them and love learning new facts!
While they can easily find answers to their questions online, a diverse science research library will expose them to more information and spark new questions. Plus, the images in these book are amazing!
This science library will be work for early finishers in the classroom so they can find answers to their many questions and extend their learning independently. These resources will be paired with specific websites and a Google form where they can conduct their research and then share with me, as their teacher.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
You donate directly to the teacher or project you care about and see where every dollar you give goes.
