My Project

I need assistance and donations to effectively create an environment that is both wonderful and organized. Filled with a wealth of materials, in order to support and guide the development of young minds.

Your generosity will help us create an environment that sparks curiosity, inspires creativity, and supports the development of young minds.

By donating materials or spreading the word, you are making a lasting impact on the educational journey of these children.

The students will use glue sticks, popsicle sticks, and paint to create their STEM science projects about animal life and shelters. Students will use the organizing bins to store their work as each unit will allow them to revisit, and add to their animal life shelters. Students will be learning about how animals survive in different environments and how they maintain their habitats.

Students will present their structures and allow other students to give simple feedback on their whiteboards. This gives children the opportunity to learn how to give suggestions to others in a kind and meaningful way.

Together, let's empower our students to explore, experiment, and dream big in the world of science. The impact of your involvement will extend far beyond this project, as our students develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a deep appreciation for the wonders of the scientific universe.
