My Project

This DonorsChoose project is a mixed-bag of classroom essentials, Biology goodies, and supplies for a science-focused Culinary class.

Some essentials include markers and colored pencils, so my students can bring their creativity to the classroom and our diagrams to life.

The Biology goodies include bullfrogs for dissections and a game to make learning about cells fun!

Culinary items include a Instant Pot pressure cooker to learn about different cooking methods, cutting boards and knives to teach students proper kitchen safety and knife techniques, as well as a set of measuring cups and mixing bowls.

Thank you for considering helping our classroom!
