My Project

Stepping into my fifth-grade science classroom is usually the perfect mix of craved chaos and a love for learning. Creating out-of-the-box science lessons that provide my students with experiences they otherwise wouldn’t get is always the drive.

I am looking to build beginner science kits that include lab safety items such as goggles and gloves, so that I have proper resources to expose my students to experiences with science they will come to remember for a lifetime.

From causing reactions to exploring chemical and physical changes to unveiling the smaller microorganisms in our world through magnifying tools and microscope slides, I want them to be able to go on journeys beyond my classroom. These science kit materials will provide my students with the tools necessary to help catapult their learning!
