Help me give my students hands on materials to teach them about energy and motion in all its states, to help them define potential and kinetic energy, and how energy is transferred.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hall's classroom raised $526

My Students
My students are social and emotional beings with varying degrees of prior knowledge when they walk into the classroom. They are creative, thoughtful, and extremely inquisitive. They love hands on activities that challenge them to find solutions. It always brings a smile to my face when they tell me that science is their favorite class. They inspire me daily as I watch them learn and grow.
My Project
With these materials my students will gain a better understanding of force, potential energy, kinetic energy, speed, position, motion, force, friction, gravity, and inertia. These materials will allow investigations and understanding of moving objects that exhibit different kinds of motions and that pushes or pulls can change the path of an object. Learning about the energy of moving objects and the way that energy is transferred will be an engaging and fun way to learn. All students will be engaged with hands on materials in a fun and inquisitive learning environment.
More than half of students from low‑income households
