My Project
Ice is a classroom essential. We use it for boo boos, our water bottles, art projects, and more! I would be thrilled to have an ice maker in our room instead of in the building, and so far out of reach that we can't access it.
This GE Portable Ice Maker will help us use ice to learn about states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas.
We will also use it for art projects and to cool down in the classroom. In the spring and fall on hot days, we will use it outside to play with!
An ice maker will also allow me to give students ice when they need it for a boo boo instead of taking away class time by sending the student to the nurse. Thank you for your consideration!
