My Project

In my 3rd grade science class, we aspire to ignite a passion for discovery and a sense of belonging in the scientific community among our young learners. To this end, we plan to incorporate essential scientific tools such as lab coats, goggles, lanyards, special pens, and notebooks. These items are not merely props but are integral to fostering a hands-on, engaging, and motivating learning environment. We seek support to fund these items, and I am excited to share how each will play a pivotal role in our classroom and why investing in these tools is an investment in our future scientists.
