Energy Heroes for Our Climate & Environment

Help me give my students hands-on models, like wind turbines, to explore the science behind being energy heroes for our climate and environment!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Delacruz's classroom raised $353

My Project

My students are scientists and engineers who value the environment around them! From mauka to makai (mountain to sea), my students see first-hand the importance of our shared planet. Although environmental degradation and climate change affect us all, we also know that our actions have the ability to create positive change toward the world we want.

My students request scientific supplies to learn how to become energy heroes for our climate and environment!

These hands-on turbine, weather, and windmill models allow my students to think creatively about clean energy and solutions for our future. Giving children tools and space to innovate strengthens problem-solving, collaboration, and engineering skills.
