Caution! Scientists at Work! Proceed With Caution!
My students need science journals for daily practice and review, ready to go centers, and science station materials for hands on exploration!

My Students
I work for a Title One school with a 100% free lunch rate. My students are 33% African American, 33% English Language Learners, and 34% white, Asian, and other diverse populations.
We are in a small inner city system and many of my students come to school with few supplies to begin learning.
These students are strong, capable learners who need to be able to be competitive with their peers for 21st century jobs in the future. Sometimes my students have been overlooked or don't try due to a fear of failure in not having what other students have access to. They give up easier on themselves because they don't feel they are as good as their same aged peers due to a lack of experiences and opportunities in the technological world.
My Project
Scientists need materials to experiment with and journals to keep their notes of discovery. With limited copies per month, science typically goes on the back burner or we have limited use of shared materials. I am requesting these hands on science activities, ready to be used science kits, reusable supplies, and daily science practice journals, students can organize data and keep their experiments close at hand for daily review of skills. Scientists must be able to witness changes and be able to use multiple materials in more than one setting. I am requesting science file folder games, review station materials, journals with science prompts and experiments for daily practice and review, and a complete set of science centers that are ready to be used with no extra materials needed!
Students will be able to interact with hands on manipulatives especially for our most important units-animals, environmental changes that affect plants and animals, and reading resources for non-fiction text review.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
