Help me give my students new science material to spark discovery and exploration including a classroom aquarium and lab coats!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Torres's classroom raised $536
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Our students are great explorers and very curious about learning. This year our science area needs a make over. The new fish tank will help our students develop social skills by helping to feed the fish and learning about them. Also, the fish tank will help the classroom to have a relaxed atmosphere necessary for students to lean.
Science material helps students develop inquiry skills and scientific concepts.
The new set of insects will help the students to classify, describe and learn new vocabulary words. New science materials mean new adventures and learning opportunities for a brighter future.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
