My Project

One of my students' favorite subjects that we study is chemistry. They love the hands-on experiences and doing labs.

Plus, we all love watching things bubble up, change color, change temperature, and of course "blow up".

Chemistry is best when it's hands-on, but that requires lots of supplies, especially for over 210 students. Many of the supplies we use for chemistry are consumable, meaning we have to repurchase year after year, which can get expensive.

That's where you come in. We are asking to help replenish our consumable chemistry supplies so we have another year of learning and fun! Thanks for helping our class!
