My Project

In the post-COVID world, my students are eager to get as many hands-on experiences as possible especially in science! In my Chemistry classroom, I strive to provide materials to do experiments at least once a week as well as three or four major projects throughout the year.

These supplies will allow my students to be completely engaged in Chemistry this year without having to have me scrounge and beg for funding or even spend my own money!

The pencils, the scissors, the glue, the notebooks will be used every day in class as I teach the students on how to keep a lab notebook and cutting and pasting and marking in their notebook. The materials continue to be used when they make their final projects which are typically infographics displayed on foam board in the school commons for the entire school to see.
