My Project

I love my students’ curiosity and enthusiasm for science! They are eager to explore new ideas, conduct experiments, and engage in hands-on learning. However, to stay organized and maximize their learning, they need essential classroom supplies.

With your support, I will provide my students with Post-it notes, marble notebooks for labs, and tab dividers to help them structure their notes, track their experiments, and develop strong organizational skills.

Post-it notes will allow them to jot down quick observations and collaborate during discussions. Lab notebooks will serve as their personal scientific journals, fostering critical thinking and reflection. Tab dividers will help keep their notebooks structured, making it easier for them to review and retain information.

These simple yet impactful resources will empower my students to take ownership of their learning and develop essential skills for success in science and beyond. Thank you for supporting our classroom!
