My Project

The 7-12 graders will use the laboratory materials in their laboratory activities and experiments in the science classroom. The digital microscope is used in Life Science and Biology experiments to view specimens clearly and simplify the task. Physical science will use car toys in force and acceleration activities. Earth Science and Chemistry will use the oven toaster because we always beg the cafeteria manager to use the oven in our Earth Crust Experiment and other chemistry experiments. The materials you will provide to my students will help them not waste time going to other buildings, and they will focus on their learning and gain more knowledge in our laboratory experience.

Grades 6-8
